Bucks fall to Brock 20-9, drop to 2-2 on season

The Buckaroos continued to struggle on offense Friday, against Brock on the road. 

What looked to be a potential shootout early on settled down, as both teams scored quickly in the first quarter but struggled to find their way across the end zone again in the first half. For the Bucks, it would be the only time they would find the end zone all night.
