The Horsemen Stomp Out The Fire!

by Mike Brown

Kennewick, Washington - The Idaho Horsemen traveled to Washington State to take on the Tri-Cities Fire. The atmosphere was great for the Fire's inaugural home game .

 After receiving the opening kickoff, the Horsemen turned the ball over by fumbling on their first possession, causing the Toyota Center to erupt.

  The Horsemen's defense held strong and eventually blocked the Fire's field goal attempt. The offense then took over with a drive for the first score of the game by Hayden Wright. (7-0)

  The Fire tied the game up on a trick play (7--7), once again pumping up the crowd in the Toyota Center. But then the momentum went in the Horsemen's favor as they score 14 unanswered points (21-7).

The Fire clawed their way back into the game after some questionable calls that took more Horsemen points off the board. Final score Horsemen 28, Fire 20.
