When Tommy Lazzaro ran for a touchdown on his first drive at quarterback, Tony Poljan was the first to congratulate him.
Even though the drive prior, it was Poljan under center.
Poljan was supposed to go back out on the field after Lazzaro's single drive against Northern Illinois, but a touchdown run from the junior with 3:06 left in the third quarter gave himself another possession.
The result – another touchdown.
Now, Tommy Lazzaro is Central Michigan football's starting quarterback.
Head coach John Bonamego named Lazzaro the starting quarterback at practice on Sept. 18 and placed Poljan into the backup spot.
