Kodiaks come out on top in defensive duel with Broncos

The Prince George Kodiaks finished off their regular season with a 31-28 win over the Kamloops Broncos.

The Broncos made it interesting for their fans at Hillside Stadium, coming close to a comeback in the final minutes.

The Kodiaks held a 31-14 lead past the three minute warning in the fourth quarter, but a pair of receiving touchdowns by Brock Dufort, including a 75-yard house call, brought the Broncos within a field goal at the end.

For the most part, it was the defence on display for both teams, as neither offence could really get anything going past a few plays, leading to a lot of punts.

Quinn Neukomm and Myron Brown caught passes for Kodiaks touchdowns, while Xander Shane ran one in from eight yards.

Sawyer Thiessen got the start under centre, throwing one touchdown pass.

Thiessen came out of the game for about a quarter, with Liam Diebert coming in to take the snaps.

Diebert threw one touchdown for 19 yards.

Kicker Brady Harper went two-for-three on the day, hitting from 15 and 30, and missing from 38.

With the win, the Kodiaks finish the season 3-7, and placed sixth in the BC Football Conference.

Other BC Football Conference scores:

Vancouver Island Raiders  42  Valley Huskers  38

Langley Rams  24  Westshore Rebels  13

In the first round of the post-season, the undefeated Okangan Sun (10-0) will face the Huskers (5-5), while the Rams (5-5) host the Rebels (5-5).
