Sugar Skulls score a record 74 points to beat in-state rival Arizona Rattlers for the first time on Saturday night.
Justin Spears After three years and eight games, it finally happened: The Tucson Sugar Skulls beat the Arizona Rattlers.For starters, the Sugar Skulls were 0-7 since 2019 against the Rattlers prior to this week. Tucson also delivered the Rattlers their first loss of the season. The Sugar Skulls' 74 points is a single-game franchise record, and the 137 combined points is also the highest-scoring game for Tucson.
In the Sugar Skulls' 42-41 win over the Duke City Gladiators, a blocked PAT by defensive lineman Tony Winslow that was returned by Jovon White for two points was the game-deciding play for Tucson. Winslow struck again with a blocked PAT in the first quarter; he now has three blocked field goals in two games.
To begin the second quarter, Arizona kicker Ernesto Lacayo missed a PAT, and Neal connected with wide receiver Carrington Thompson for a 17-yard touchdown to move ahead 28-26. With four seconds left in the second quarter, the Rattlers attempted for a quick pass to advance the ball for a better shot at a field goal, but couldn't get out of bounds in time. Rattlers head coach and Sugar Skulls co-owner Kevin Guy chirped at the officials, landing him an unsportsmanlike penalty that would be enforced in the second half.
