In the second quarter Westfield would score five times; on a safety, two touchdown runs, a fumble, and a kickoff return. The first of which was a safety when four Westfield defenders converged on the West Potomac QB in the end zone. Following the West Potomac kick off, Saadiq Hinton would take the ball 75 yards for a Westfield score with 10:46 to play in the second quarter, giving the Bulldogs a 23-0 advantage. Isaiah Daniel would then run in from 1 yard out with 9:07 remaining making it 30-0. Later Caleb Wheatland would scoop up a fumble after an errant West Potomac fumble that rolled into the end zone and was recovered for a TD, Westfield’s lead became 37-0. But the Bulldogs were not finished, with two seconds remaining, Isaiah Daniel would score his second touchdown of the game however Westfield was unable to get the extra point and the score at halftime was 43-0.
