Columbia Lions withstand Curlew comeback, win 50-30

Brandon Hansen

October 15, 2026

It started as a blowout, turned into a dogfight, and then the Columbia Lions did their thing.

After exploding for 26 unanswered points in the opening quarter, Columbia watched its commanding advantage nearly disappear against the Curlew Cougars before responding with a second-half surge to secure a 50-30 victory in eight-man football action.

Behind another strong performance from quarterback Dylan Williams, who threw for three touchdowns and rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown, the Lions showcased how many weapons they had. Running back Kaleb Williams ran for 146 yards and a touchdown, while Michael Fagan caught two touchdown passes.

Columbia scored four touchdowns in the first quarter, surrendered 22 consecutive points, then answered with 24 of its own to put the contest out of reach.

Columbia wasted little time establishing its offense. Starting at midfield, Kaleb Williams broke loose for a 12-yard gain before Dylan Williams connected with Hank Herrera for a 38-yard touchdown pass with 11:22 remaining in the first quarter. Columbia immediately recovered an onside kick at the Curlew 43-yard line, giving its offense another opportunity. Dylan Williams found Hank Herrera for 35 yards before connecting with Fagan again, this time for a 5-yard touchdown with 9:33 remaining.
