Power Escape Dallas With 76-75 Win

DALLAS (KDKA) – The Pittsburgh Power escaped Dallas with a one-point victory over the Vigilantes Saturday night.

Remy Hamilton missed a 32-yard field goal on the last play of the game to hand the Power a 76-75 win.

The AFL is known for high-scoring, high-octane offense and this game lived up to the hype.

Each team put up 13 points in the first quarter, but Dallas held a 34-27 lead at the half.

Not to be outdone, the Power (6-4) came out in the second half and outscored the Vigilantes (6-5) 14-7 to tie the game and set up a frantic fourth quarter where each team found the endzone seven times.

With Dallas trailing 76-69, Dan Raudabaugh connected with DeAndrew Rubin for a 22-yard touchdown with 10 seconds left.

Dallas elected to go for the two-point conversion, but failed to score. However, they did recover an onside kick, but Hamilton missed the potential game-winning field goal.

For Pittsburgh, Bernard Morris completed 25 of his 40 passes for 280 yards and seven touchdowns.

Wide receiver Michael Washington led the Power with 12 catches for 184 yards and four touchdowns.
