Micah Johnson's electric punt return lead by a Lane Nelson crushing block, helped push the lead. Once ahead by eight late in the game the Lions gave up the trying score with four minutes to play. All tied at 22-22, the Lions offense opened the door for a pair of Micah Johnson long touchdown runs as time was running out on the Crusaders.
