The Ruff Riders came out strong and took a commanding lead in the first half by going up by two scores . Unfortunately , for the Riders some untimely turnovers did them in , in the second half as the defending champions , led by Epler VII MVP # 7 George Garza , converted on the forced turnovers . George Garza , had the game winning score as he leaped over a Ruff Rider tackler and into the endzone . The Ruff Riders could have tied the game but their extra point attempt was no good .
