After the half the Legends energy level dropped substantially as they struggled with missed opportunities to score touchdowns, to put the team back in the game. In the end the Apollos walked away with their sixth game win and clinched a playoff berth.
In the post game press conference, here’s what Legends head coach Kevin Coyle said about the loss, “I’m disappointed in the outcome of most of the games we had.”
