The Storm (8-7) is coming off a much needed and dominating win this past weekend to the Black Hills Red Dogs (1-14) in a 65-14 victory. The Storm was led by running back Marques Smith, who had 23 carries for 105 yards and an amazing 6 touchdowns, which ties the Storm single game record for rushing TD's. Quarterback, Terrance Bryant had a solid game of completing 9 of his 12 throws for 77 yards and no turnovers. Bryant was coming off a solid performance the week before where he was named the UIF offensive player of the week for week 16 when he threw for 219 yards on 20 of 30 passing and four TD's in a tough loss to the Omaha Beef, 49-44. The Storm now travels to Sioux City, IA, this Friday, July 15, 2005, for a 7:05 PM kickoff at the Tyson's Event Center. This is the third meeting this season between the Storm and the Bandits, with the Bandits having a 2-0 lead in the three game series. Both losses for the Storm came at the Sioux Falls Arena in two hard fought battles. The first loss came back on April 16, 2005, when the Bandits won in a 50-43 victory in the last quarter of the game and the second loss came on June 25, 2005, 38-34. The Storm still has a chance for a #4 seed in the UIF Playoffs, and a first round home playoff game with a win over the Bandits and an Omaha Beef loss in Huntsville, Alabama (Tennessee Valley Raptors)
