L.A. Holds Back The Reign, 17-0
Los Angeles-
The Albany Reign ( 6-3 ) came to town with hope of knocking off the undefeated Buckets ( 9-0 ) but L.A. gutted out yet another tough win with some great Defense and just enough Offense to get the win 17-0."I tip my cap to Albany coach Chad S. - his D is amazing and he moved the ball on us okay they just couldn't find the Endzone. We made some plays right when we needed them and we got a gritty win over a great team."
Leading only 7-0 late into the 3rd Quarter, the Buckets finally got some breathing room when Los Angeles's QB Pat Binder found WR Newton Putnam for a big 33 yard gain all the way down to the Albany 1-yard line where HB Carlos Myles later punched it in to give a 14-point lead. Rookie Kicker James Neat later iced it with a 33 yard FG with 7:50 to play in the 4th.
Thanx for the great game, Albany coach Chad S.!
Cheers,
Jay
