by FXFLnews

Brooklyn defeats Omaha 15-13

On Friday night, in the Nationally Televised Game of the Week, The Brooklyn Bolts picked up their second win, and gave the Omaha Mammoths their first loss of the season.

Brooklyn Kicker Nick Marsh, who had missed both extra point attempts in this game, redeemed himself by kicking a 36-yard, go-ahead Field Goal with only 12 seconds left in the game.

The Field Goal put the Bolts up 15-13, and they went on to win by that score.

The Field Goal was set up after Brooklyn got the ball back in the Fourth Quarter, after blocking a 24-yard Field Goal attempt by Omaha’s Trey Barrow, giving Brooklyn the ball back with only 2:51 left in the game.

Brooklyn then got into Field Goal range with a 49-yard pass from Brooklyn QB Corey Robinson to A.C. Leonard, on Third-and-8.

Nick Marsh came through with the game on the line, after missing two extra point attempts; he hit the 36-yard Field Goal for the win.

For the Mammoths, QB Brock Jensen had two rushing Touchdowns. Trey Barrow missed one of two of his extra point tries. 

Brooklyn drew and estimated 3500 fans for the game, which is a significant improvement on the 1500 fans that attended last week's game.

Next week, Brooklyn travels to Boston on Halloween night, in their first road game. 

The Omaha Mammoths do not play again until November 5th, welcoming the Boston Brawlers to Omaha, in what will be Boston’s second game in Omaha.
