Losing Streak Hits Two as What?! Rues Missed Opportunities


The team started poorly, as What?! gave up a quick touchdown and a turnover to fall 2 scores behind. It was then followed by a scores by both teams, which made it 17-6 by halftime.

While playing 1 person down, the team stayed resilient and never got too down on itself. In the 2nd half, What?! clawed back within 5 points to a 25-20 deficit. The defense made several key stops and the offense strung together several long drives.

However, due to not being able to take advantage of turnover opportunities and missed big play chances on offense, it was as close as the team would get. Eventually, What?! was overwhelmed by their opponent's superior numbers and succumbed to a 38-20 defeat.

Although burdened with its 2nd consecutive loss, the team's defensive performance this past Sunday was remarkably better. The key now is to get a full strength team on the field and play up to the standards the team is capable of. There aren't too many weeks left in the season and What?! definitely faces an uphill battle to turn their season around.
