Week 3: Buckets Beaten By St. Hammars, 23-7

Wembley Stadium, London- It was a drizzly night and a crappy game for L.A. as St. Hammars rained on the Buckets' perfect season, giving them a dissapointing 23-7 loss. The opening play for the Norsemen was a fumble right back to the Buckets but after driving to the St. Hammar 14 yard line on 3rd and 1 disaster struck:

"The pass from L.A.'s QB1 #4 Luck Oliver is intercepted by St. Hammars's DE1 #70 Chris Pritchard and returned for a gain of almost 84 yards. Touchdown, St. Hammars!"

That play gave them a huge momentum swing- and my D contributed by continually bailing the Norsemen out with costly penalties. The St. Hammars WR's were also amazing - catching everything in tight coverage. My hat's off to Coach Ragnar for a well-called win!

L.A. Rushing Thompson 26 att/96 yds, 0 TD
L.A. Passing Oliver 10 comp/26 att for 178 yds, 1 TD, 2 INT
L.A. Receiving Ownens 1 rec/68 yds, 1 TD; Weathers 4/65, 0 TD; Thompson 5/45, 0 TD

Cheers!
