now we get the privilege of playing against Life U.

Beating Dallas was awesome. They had a huge home crowd. It was a tale of two halves, with the wind being a factor. We opened up a 34-10 lead shortly after halftime, but Dallas stormed back to make it 34-29. The 2nd half ran around 47 minutes, naturally everyone on our sideline was freaking out. But we made one last defensive stand and the final whistle blew.

Sacramento was a big team. Some very dynamic Fijians. When we kept it tight and structured, we dominated. They were dangerous after a turnover and quick to take advantage of our mistakes. The first half was pretty even but we had more gas down the stretch.
