Iowa Barnstormers News Release
The Iowa Barnstormers electrified Wells Fargo Arena on Saturday with a nail-biting win that saw the team scoring the go-ahead touchdown in the final minutes to beat the Bismarck Bucks and improve to 5-5 on the season.
Iowa will be looking for the same success on Saturday, when the Sioux Falls Storm travel to Wells Fargo Arena for the final, home regular season game of the year.
The win last Saturday came at a pivotal time for the team, as they inched even closer to clinching a spot in the 2021 IFL Playoffs.
If the Barnstormers secure a victory against Sioux Falls on Saturday, the team will clinch a playoff spot for the fourth-straight season.
In each of the other two matchups between the teams this season, Iowa came out with the win, defeating Sioux Falls on the road in the season opener and then again at Wells Fargo Arena in June.
Wide ReceiverÃÂ Carrington ThompsonÃÂ had one of his best games in a Barnstormers uniform on Saturday, going for 78 yards and catching the game winning touchdown from quarterbackÃÂ Daquan Neal.
Completing the momentum that was garnered by an early forced fumble from defensive starÃÂ Tony Jones,ÃÂ the Barnstormers were able to power through to get back to .500 and into a spot going into the final home game of the regular season.
Saturday's matchup with Sioux Falls kicks off at 7:05 p.m. CT at Wells Fargo Arena and can be seen live on the Indoor Football League's YouTube page.
