Frisco's defense was able to hold the Stampede in check
Snapping a two-game losing streak, Frisco (6-4) also vaulted from fifth to third place in the IFL standings thanks to losses by the CenTex Barracudas and the Alaska Wild. San Angelo slipped to 1-8.
The Stampede Express led 16-10 at halftime on the strength of two Daron Vinson to Tavarres Williams touchdown passes in the second quarter.
After switching quarterbacks, Frisco tied the game on backup Wes St. Aubin's 13-yard touchdown to Daron Lawrence with 8:59 remaining in the third quarter.
Don McGee's 45-yard interception return put the Thunder ahead 23-16 forty seconds later. The Thunder added Dennis Hopovac's second field and a safety in the fourth quarter while the defense preserved the lead. Shaylon Carter's interception with 1:01 remaining effectively sealed the victory.
McGee, a former North Texas standout, also posted six tackles and 72 return yards.
Frisco jumped out to an early 10-3 advantage, but was held scoreless in the second quarter.
St. Aubin finished 11 of 18 for 109 yards. Three Thunder receivers -- Jason Deml (80 yards), Lawrence (76 yards, 1 TD) and Moses Harris (46, 1 TD) had six catches.
Williams finished with 8 catches and 101 yards for San Angelo.
