PFC FINAL: THUNDER 51 RIFLES 22

The Regina Thunder snapped a two-game slide on Sunday with a 51-22 road win over the Winnipeg Rifles at Investors Group Field.

The Thunder fell behind 8-0 early in the contest however a pair of Jaeden Marwick touchdown passes to Preston Bews and Colton Klassen along with a Klassen rushing major gave the Thunder a 28-8 lead at halftime.

A wild second half ensued as the Rifles rolled up 10 straight points to cut the Thunder’s lead to 28-18 however Regina never lost control of the game.

Marwick found Bews for another aerial touchdown for a 34-18 lead and Regina quarterback Sawyer Buettner – in relief of Marwick – put 10 more points on the board to put the game away at 51-22.

With the win the Thunder improved to 4-2 while the Rifles dropped to 1-5.

The Thunder will enjoy a bye week and then visit the Calgary Colts on Sunday, October 4.
