The Prince George Kodiaks essentially flipped the script from last week as they picked up a 33-13 win over the Kamloops Broncos.
Brady Harper had a brilliant first half kicking the ball for the Kodiaks at Hillside Stadium, splitting the uprights from 30 yards out.
He was good from 32 in the second half as well.
The reigning CJFL Special Teams Player of the Week also pinned the Broncos at their own three-yard line twice, both times ending up with Kamloops conceding a safety.
Following the first Broncos safety, the Kodiaks capped off a 60-yard touchdown drive with a one-yard touchdown from Gavin Halvorson.
The Broncos found the end zone twice in the first half, with Quarterback Chase Witzel finding Brock Dufort and Colton Meikle for touchdowns. Kamloops went 1-for-2 on the extra points.
In the second half, it was all Kodiaks as they piled on 19 points to seal the win.
After a huge 51-yard punt return from Myron Brown, Halvorson punched in his second one-yard touchdown on the day.
Quarterback Sawyer Thiessen also found Carson Briere wide open in the endzone for another major.
The Broncos also gave up a third safety after penalties pushed them back to their own six-yard line and going two and out.
The defensive line put plenty of pressure on Witzel, who was making his first complete start for the Broncos after their usual starter went down to injury in their season opener last week.
Kodiaks Linebacker Caiden Crow picked off Witzel in the first half, leading to one of Harper’s field goal.
Alexandros Thanos and Taemon Piddocke also had interceptions in the fourth.
With the win, the Kodiaks (1-1) are sitting third in the BC Football Conference.
