Los Angeles Pulls Out Thrilling Win Over Plano, 31-24
Los Angeles-
This one was a doozy. Just when it seemed like the Buckets ( 1-0 ) were taking control, the visiting Plano Longhorns ( 0-1 ) would storm back with a great drive and make it exciting- but in the end L.A. finally pulled out a thrilling 31-24 win in the opening game for both teams."Give Plano coach Ray W. some credit- they battled hard!" L.A. coach Jay T. said. "They scored on that fumble return and we were climbing uphill from there. We battled back and forth and we finally just broke through and scored at the very end. A great win in a fantastc game!"
Thanx for the great game, Plano coach Ray W.!
Cheers,
Jay
