Westminster comeback was aided by standout kicker Blake Gillikin, who starred in every aspect of the kicking game. Gilliken connected on all three field goal attempts, including a 53-yard attempt in the opening period after a fumble recovery in BT territory by the Wildcats.
Gilliken’s three punts covered 58, 62 and 65 yards, and he put six kickoffs in the end zone for touchbacks. The one time he did not reach the end zone turned out to be the pivotal play of the game – a perfectly executed onside kick in the fourth quarter that scooted past both walls of BT players before being recovered by Westminster at the BT 21.
