COYOTES ‘DARKSIDE DEFENSE’ LED BY JAKE SHEFFIELD IN ‘RAZOR THIN’ 21-19 VICTORY OVER CALIFORNIA SHARKS

0

(PALM SPRINGS) — For the SoCal Coyotes (1-0), their nail-biting 21-19 APFL Week One win truly came down to the proverbial ‘game of inches.’

California Sharks record-setting quarterback Joe Clancy barely missed on three long touchdowns. A goal-line pass for a two-point conversion in the game’s final minute – that would have tied the game – was just off the mark.

But the cause of those rushed throws? Relentless pressure from the ‘Darkside Defense,’ led by none other than Arizona State NFL DE prospect Jake Sheffield.

Sheffield led the Coyotes with two sacks and five hurries, which opened the floodgates for pressure from CFL camp prospect DE Arlando Brown (one sack), DE Rafael Lamas, LB Cade Cowdin (one sack) and NFL camp prospect LB Christo Lisika. Linebacker Ryan Pervine had another sack, giving the Coyotes a total of five.

The ‘Darkside’ also claimed an interception by Dominyck Miller which he returned for 23 yards.
