The No. 10 ranked Awesome Blossoms (3-0 overall, 2-0 Gopher) lost to LP-HT last year, but now they are in first place in the Gopher Conference by themselves with a win this year.

“They kind of took it to us last year and it felt god to come back and beat them tonight,” BP head coach Chad Gimbel said.

BP held LP-HT’s explosive rushing attack to 136 yards, but the Blossoms allowed 238 passing yards.

“They had a receiver who made some unbelievable catches,” Gimbel said. “He was a highlight reel.”
