On the flea flicker, Ian Shultis hits Curtis Dempster for a 40-yard scoring strike to tie the game, 28-28, with 10:55 to play.

Shultis handed the ball off to John Lister, who pitched the ball back to his quarterback, who found Dempster down the right hashmarks behind the Saugus secondary.

And Saugus just had a 35-yard kickoff return called back for an illegal block.

SANTA CLARITA -- Lister bowls over three defenders off left tackle for a 32-yard romp to set Thousand Oaks up at the Saugus 24 with just under two minutes to play in the first half at Cougar Stadium.

On the play action, Thousand Oaks quarterback Ian Shultis immediately finds receiver Robert Mullaney alone down the middle of the field for a 24-yard scoring strike with 1:41 left in the half.

That's the way the first half ends. The Lancers will receive the second half kickoff.

Lister has 157 yards on 14 carries.
