The Vandals extended the lead to 23-10 when Josifek threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Dwyer 2:01 before intermission and Cameron Pope made a 40-yard field goal in the third.
P.J. London ran it in from the 2 to get NAU within 23-17 with 4:11 left. The Lumbjeracks' defense then forced a three-and-out, and NAU managed to reach midfield with 52 seconds left but eventually turned it over on downs after a nine-play, 27-yard drive.
