For a quarter-and-a-half, Tacoma Baptist and Muckleshoot Tribal were deadlocked in a scoreless tie.

Noah Weaver changed all of that for the Crusaders, getting his team on the scoreboard in the craziest of ways in an 8-man game - a defensive touchdown.

Weaver, a sophomore defensive end, reached down for a deflected Josiah Vaomu pass and returned an interception 55 yards for a score - and Tacoma Baptist never looked back in a win Saturday in Auburn.
