In a battle between two 2-3 teams, the Pittsburgh Maulers put up a stinker on the road against the Memphis Showboats, losing 22-0 and falling to last place in the North Division.
The Maulers kicked off to start the game and Memphis’ WR Derrick Dillon returned the kick to the Pittsburgh 39, giving Memphis great field position right off the bat. The Maulers forced Memphis into a 4th and 2, but they went for it and their QB Cole Kelley ran a QB draw for a first down. A sack on 3rd and 10 forced a Memphis field goal attempt, and Alex Kessman’s 46-yard attempt gave Todd Haley’s Memphis squad a 3-0 lead with 10:34 left in the first quarter.
