Edge Handcuff Outlaws on Road
May 25, 2013 - Champions Professional Indoor Football League (CPIFL)
Bloomington Edge News Release
After dropping two straight home games to take away playoff hopes, the Bloomington Edge bounced back in Sedalia, defeating the Mid-Missouri Outlaws by a score of 46-6 in Saturday night's Champions Professional Indoor Football League action.
Andre Raymond would be the offensive key by scoring his first of five touchdowns on the first Edge drive of the game after Andre Brown found Raymond on an 8-yard touchdown pass to open up the scoring.
It would be the defense making the big plays forcing five Outlaw turnovers (3 fumbles, 2 interceptions), with Marvin Campbell adding a 40-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown early in the second quarter.
Campbell was not done scoring however, sacking quarterback Kyle Christians in the end zone for a safety with under two minutes left in the first half. The Edge would go into the half with a 19-0 lead.
Raymond would take over in the second half rushing for four Edge touchdowns, twice in the third quarter from 2 and 3 yards out, while closing out the fourth quarter with rushes for 1 and 4-yard scores.
With those four touchdowns Raymond tied an Edge rushing touchdown in one season record with 18 touchdowns, having one more game to be played. Raymond had previously set the record last season.
The Edge defense held the Outlaws (0-10) scoreless until James Cody caught a Christians tipped pass for a 13-yard touchdown reception, nearly posting their second shutout of the season.
The Edge (5-6) have a Week 11 bye, but will resume action in their final game of the season the following Saturday, June 8th at 7:05 p.m. when they visit Sioux City for a matchup with the Bandits.
The game can be heard on WJBC.com with a 6:45pm pre-game start. For more information on the Edge, call 309-TC SPORT (827-7678) or visit Facebook, Twitter and www.bloomingtonedge.com.
