OGDEN, Utah — In an exciting comeback, Richie Munoz passed for a touchdown while David Godley added another with his impressive run in the fourth quarter, leading Weber State to a 28-17 victory over Cal Poly on Saturday.

After struggling through the first three quarters and relying on four field goals from Kyle Thompson, the Wildcats found themselves trailing 17-12 at the start of the final quarter. However, Munoz connected with Jacob Sharp on a 17-yard touchdown pass, giving Weber State an 18-17 lead, though the subsequent two-point conversion attempt did not succeed.

Just five minutes later, Godley extended the lead with a 25-yard touchdown run, pushing the score to 25-17. Thompson capped off the victory by successfully converting his fifth field goal.

Cal Poly, now holding a record of 3-8 overall and 2-6 in the Big Sky Conference, managed only three snaps inside the red zone, which resulted from a fumble by Weber State. The Mustangs scored two significant touchdowns: an 80-yard pass from Lucas Razore to Michael Briscoe and a 42-yard rushing touchdown by Aiden Ramos.

During the game, Munoz accumulated 191 passing yards, while Adrian Cormier contributed significantly with 138 rushing yards for Weber State, who now has a record of 4-8 overall and 3-5 in their conference. In total, Cal Poly gained 220 yards and recorded seven first downs throughout the match.
