The Maryland Maniacs indoor football squad edged out the Saginaw Sting 26-25 last Friday night, scoring the Maniacs' ninth straight win of the season. Maryland's latest win was its most hard fought. The Maniacs scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 34 yard run by Terry Moss with only eight seconds remaining. Saginaw missed a 52 yard field goal try to seal Maryland's win.
Saginaw had been up by ten points late in the second quarter before another last minute play, a 35 yard pass from Bryson Spinner to Joseph Urso narrowed the score to a 17-13 halftime deficit. The Maniacs and Sting subsequently traded control of the game before the final Maniacs score decided the outcome.
Maryland will return as heavy favorites this Saturday for its final regular season home game against the Muskegon Thunder. Subsequent road games at the Bloomington Extreme and Rochester Raiders should provide more pressing tests for the Maniacs before they begin their first postseason run.
