On the next possession, New Canaan answered right back as Moore ran in for the 10-yard touchdown to put the Rams on top 24-7.
Defensively, Jack Finnigan picked off a Prep pass and brought it back to the Jesuits 14-yard line with 1:40 left in the third. Later on the drive, New Canaan recovered their own fumble in the end-zone for a touchdown to put the Rams ahead 31-7. The ball was recovered by Harrison Skym.
