Northern Lights Shine Over Buckets, 31-23

Minneapolis- The home team Minneapolis Northern Lights made the big plays in the 2nd half to beat the visiting Los Angeles Buckets 31-23.

"We had momentum in the first half but we made some poor decisions to let them get their rally going and we just couldn't get it back tonight!" L.A. coach Jay T. said. "They made some big stops on us late and we just could not stop them at all tonight!"

Thanx for the great game, Lights coach Joe G.!

Cheers,

Jay
