First Round: Flagstaff 27 at Los Angeles 26


It was game of many different momentum swings. Flagstaff fans were estactic with the opening drive, but this proved to be the only offense of the first half for the Savages the final minutes before halftime. The Savage's defence gave up a lot of yards, but turned it up in the red zone, and was able to keep the opposition to only field goals. This ended up being the key to the game.


The third quarter started off well for the Savages with a fortunate bounce of the ball on the opening kickoff leading to a quick touchdown. After, Los Angles, once again dominated both sides of the ball, going up by 5, 26-21 half way to the 4th quarter. Finally the Savages seemed to get some energy, and were able to put together a drive to go up by 2. The final minutes can down to the Savage defence having to do what it failed to do all game, stop the offence of LA. In the end, the savages were able to put together a good series, and the Savages when a playoff game for the first time in team history.
