Anthony Schembri punted nine times for the Stallions for 361 yards, averaging 40.1 yards per kick. The Stallions had two first downs, a long pass of eight yards, and a long run of six yards.

Cachere was 6 of 9 passing for 74 yards, with two 16-yard touchdowns to Jermaine Braddock and an eight-yard toss to Samaj Bolin. Quincy Craig and Jobi Mallory each ran for two touchdowns while the Vikings (1-2) amassed 293 yards rushing on 46 carries.
