Ted Klopf threw for 134 yards in the first half to lead the Genesee County Patriots to a 22-6 win over the Great Lakes Makos in North American
Football League play Saturday.
Klopf threw 25-yards to Denarkis Smith for one score and scrambled in from 3-yards out for another. Clint Galvis ran for the other Patriots' TD.
The defense allowed only three first downs, with Bo Moore making four tackes, a sack and recovering a fumble and Jeff Toady picking off a pass in the
win.
The Patriots play 6:30 p.m. Saturday at the Detroit Downriver Diesel at Franklin High in Livona.
