Kennedy led 7-6 at the half, before Holland scored from a yard out to give Hazen a 14-7 lead. Kennedy’s L.J. Jennings scored on a run in the third quarter to keep the teams even heading into the fourth.

Holland scored twice in the final quarter, once from one yard out and once from 68 yards out. He finished the game with 30 carries for 228 yards.
