A sign of things to come throughout the evening, Elijah Marks put Northern Arizona ahead on the opening drive thanks to a touchdown pass from Case Cookus and the Lumberjacks never looked back Saturday in San Luis Obispo.
Handing the Cal Poly Mustangs (0-4, 0-1 Big Sky) another home loss, Northern Arizona (1-2, 1-0) never trailed in the 28-10 victory and held the home team out of the end zone for the first 44 minutes of the game.
Taking over as the team’s top receiving option with Emmanuel Butler out for the season due to a shoulder injury, Marks set new career-highs with 14 receptions, 206 yards and two touchdowns as quarterback Cookus looked his way early and often.
