The Prince George Kodiaks first playoff run has come to an early close following a 45-28 loss to the Westshore Rebels at Starlight Stadium in Westshore.
Kodiaks Quarterback Sawyer Thiessen ran a pair of touchdowns into the endzone himself, including one that tied the game at 14 at the end of the first half.
Rebels Quarterback Gavin Sessions, named a BC Football Conference All-Star yesterday (Friday), threw two touchdowns passes in the first half, one to Jeremiah Beckwith and Tyrell Hoffland.
The Rebels started to pull away in the second half, with Sessions throwing another touchdown pass to Beckwith and Carter Williams rushing three in for Westshore.
The Rebels added a single in the second half as well.
Down late in the fourth, the Kodiaks were injected with some energy when Thiessen found Kayle Cowley for a touchdown.
Thiessen also found Matthew Sturgess in the end zone in the final minute.
The Kodiaks also conceded one safety in the loss.
The Rebels will go onto play the Okanagan Sun, who beat the Vancouver Island Raiders 43-12 in the other first round matchup, in the BC Football Conference Final.
