In the second quarter, Peetz was unable to generate any offense while the Falcons put up two more scores to give them a 28-to-8 lead at the halftime break.
The teams battled through a scoreless third quarter, but the Falcons got back on track offensively in the fourth quarter, and added 21 more points to close the game and earn a 49-to-14 victory.
The quarterback trio of Rhyder Bane, Logan Vallier and Colton Howell threw 11 passes and completed six for 102 yards and a touchdown.
