Watch: Andrew Can't Keep Up with St. Rita

was unable to get anything going in the first half of Friday night’s Class 7A second-round playoff game against St. Rita. The Thunderbolts tried to mount a second-half comeback, scoring two late touchdowns, but it wasn't enough, as

An opening-drive missed field goal and a pair of first-half interceptions by Andrew quarterback Tyler Hook translated into three St. Rita touchdowns. Rita running back Tim Lombard rushed for a score and quarterback Scott Thomas hooked up with receivers T.J. Verdun and Kenny Golladay to give the Mustangs a 21-0 halftime lead.

Jarvis Franklin got the T-Bolts on the scoreboard as he picked off a Thomas pass and took it to the house in the third quarter. Andrew found itself in the red zone again in the fourth, and fullback Nicolas Reyes recovered a fumble in the end zone to cut the St. Rita lead to eight.

However, the T-Bolts weren't able to complete the comeback as a 38-yard touchdown run by Mustangs senior Mike Zunica slammed the door on Andrew's season.

Thomas (7-for-14, 82 yards, 2 TDs, INT), Lombard (21 carries, 94 yards, TD), Zunica (10 carries, 73 yards, TD) and Golladay (3 catches, 55 yards, TD) led the way for the visiting Mustangs.

Franklin led the Thunderbolts with his pick-6 as well as 33 yards on the ground and 44 yards receiving. Hook went 14-for-22 for 190 yards and three interceptions, while Joe Sanfilippo caught six passes for 73 yards.
