Timberlake 19, Moscow 16

Failing to capitalize on several opportunities, Moscow suffered its first loss of the season, bowing to Timberlake of Spirit Lake, Idaho, in a nonconference game.

On their final possession, the Bears (2-1) looked poised to pull off a big-play double pass, but the ball was dropped. A holding penalty followed.

Isaiah Murphy ran for a touchdown for Moscow, while Leon Hutton and his receivers had bright moments. But the Bears lacked consistency and were forced to throw more than they wanted.

"We just didn't make enough plays," Moscow coach Phil Helbling said. "We struggled offensively — too many three-and-outs.

"Defensively, we just need to be more physical," he said. "He had trouble wrapping up their ballcarrier."

No statistics or other details were available.
