The Pirates answered with a 28-yard run to pay dirt by Cameron. The extra-point failed and the teams went into halftime deadlocked at 6.
After Frost scored in the third to take a 13-6 lead, Cameron again answered for the Pirates, this time on a 10-yard run. Cameron then tacked on a two-point conversion to stake Perrin-Whitt to a 14-13 lead.
