Millersville (4-1, 2-0 PSAC East) scored first in the game on its first possession. After the Marauders forced the Huskies to punt on the game's first series, Folmar directed his team on a seven play, 48 yard drive with Craig Austin going the final two yards for the touchdown making it 7-0, with the PAT, with 11:01 left to play.

The Huskies (3-3, 1-1 PSAC East) answered on their ensuing drive when quarterback Chris Thompson, starting in place of the suspended Eric Miller, hitting Matt Wilson with a 47 yard scoring strike to the tie the game with 7:18 left to play in the first.

Millersville took the lead for good on its next possession when the Marauders marched 86 yards in 10 plays with John Flamish scoring from 10 yards out to make it 14-7 at the end of one period. Folmar was nearly perfect in the drive going seven for nine for 72 yards.

The Marauders made it 21-7 when Sean Scott caught a Millersville-record 91 yard touchdown pass to cap a three play, 94 yard scoring drive. The pass broke, by one yard, the longest touchdown-scoring pass in Millersville history.

The Huskies closed the gap to 21-14 when Marques Glaze scored from seven yards to cap a six play, 93 yard scoring drive with 4:19 left to play in the first half. The play in the drive was 42-yard reception by Wilson with two defenders hanging on him.

In the third period, Millersville made it 24-14 on a 30 yard field goal by Andy Ryzewski before Wilson caught a 76 yard scoring pass from Thompson to make it 24-21 with 26 seconds left in the third.

The Marauders made it 31-21 early in the fourth when Dondre Gilliam caught an eight yard pass from Folmar capping an 80 yard drive.
