- NITRO 41, MAN 26 - J.R.
House completed 31 of 35 passes for 363
yards and five TDs to lift the Wildcats (5-1).
He was not sacked and
threw only one interception.
Chris Martin caught a dozen
passes for 160 yards and one score for
Nitro, while Chad Lovejoy added seven receptions for 109 yards and a
TD. Zack Collins caught a TD pass and had a scoring run, while Robbie
Sigmon landed a pair of House's TD tosses.
The Hillbillies (3-3), who
trailed 21-20 at halftime, took their
opening possession of the third quarter and drove for a TD and a 26-21
lead. But House then found Martin with a 23-yard scoring pass and the
Wildcats were never headed.
Martin also intercepted a
pass with about two minutes left to seal the
victory.
