Three interceptions, Two Touchdowns, One win

By NStarz Ha - Demons Team Reporter

San Francisco - The Bay Area - (19 February 2001) -- The Demons came from behind with a rally in the second half to improve their record to 2-1. With that record, they are tied for 1st place in the West, thanks to the Xtreme win over the Outlaws. I had doubts if they would even score by half time. The score was 6-0, all scored by Maniax K Jeff Hall.

Throughout the game, the Demons played consistent football. They had no fumbles, and Pawlawski had no interceptions. But the bottom line was that they couldn't score. The Demons RB Vaughn Dunbar rushed for negative four yard in four carries. He was pulled out in favor of Terry Battle. Terry Battle was the Demons savior with 2 touchdown receptions, rushed 35 yards in 6 carries, and caught 5 passes for 53 yards. Also, he is the Demon's Kickoff Returner, and returned 74 yards in three chances. Do you see a well-rounded player? I do!

In my previous article, I stated the three things the Demons needed to do
to win. They were:

1. Score!
2. Stop the Penalties!
3. Stop the run!

The results:

1. The Demons out scored the Maniax in terms of touchdown 2-0.
2. The Demons limited their penalties to 9 for 74 yards. A dramatic decrease from their previous 15 for 131 yards to 13 for 103 yards.
3. Maniax RB Salaam Rashaan rushed 82 yards against the Outlaws defense. Against the Demons, he salvages 43 yards in 16 carries.

Demons, thank you. Another great game, another well deserve win.

Next up: Battle atop the West Division

Demons will host the defeated Las Vegas Outlaws at Pac Bell Park. The Outlaws undefeated record ended with the Xtreme's four field goal effort. They will still be without Ryan Clement.
