Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
The Storm got out to a hot start, and the Defenders struggled to keep up without their star quarterback.
The Defenders’ offense was stagnant, and they relied on Deon Jackson’s 64 yards rushing to get any momentum.
Jack Plummer was on fire, throwing three touchdowns and leading the Storm to a comfortable halftime lead.
This one felt predictable by the end, with the Storm pulling away and the Defenders left to wonder what could’ve been with Ta’amu on the field.
The result wasn’t surprising by the end.
