The CHAP Chariots played their inaugural game in the Christian Football League of Michigian www.cfl-mi.com on Saturday vs the Troy Defenders.
After winning the coin toss the Chariots started their march down the field, when on the 3rd play of the opening drive Durrell Mullins broke free on a reverse for the first score of the game to give the Chariots a 6-0 lead. Troy also scored on their first possession giving them a 8-6 lead. On the ensuing kick off the Defenders recovered and scored again to take a 14-6 lead. As the end the second quarter came to a close Troy looked as if they were would get another score until Jesse Burnelt picked off a possible touchdown pass at the one yard line ending the half with the score at 14-6 with Troy in the lead.
After the kickoff to start the second half, Troy was able to move the ball down the field and score taking a 22-6 lead. Troy would score one more time in the half to take a 30-6 lead with 5:40 left in the game. At that time the Chariots put together a beautiful 60 yard drive that ate up the remaining clock. Tim Saltsman lead the team down field and Jacob Woods capped it off by sneeking it in for the score to bring the score to 30-14 and that’s how it ended.
The difference in the game was the two Chariot turnovers that Troy scored off of but even though the game was out of reach they all kept pushing for that score. Next week CHAP will play the Plymouth Eagles at North Branch at 5:00.
