The Natomas Nighthawks fought the good fight in their overtime match against the Foothill Mustangs on Friday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell to the Mustangs 14-8. Having soared to a lofty 40 points in the game before, Natomas couldn't push the score so high this time.
Even if they lost, Natomas' defense sure didn't make it easy: Foothill's QB was sacked six times before it was all said and done. Leading the way was Kahirre Louis and his five sacks.
Natomas' loss dropped their record down to 4-6. As for Foothill, the win (which was their fifth in a row) raised their record to 7-3.
Natomas does not have any more games scheduled as of now. Foothill is on the road again on Friday and play against Lathrop at 7:00 p.m. on November 3rd. Lathrop is on a four-game streak of home wins, Foothill a three-game streak of away wins -- so someone will have to leave a streak behind on the field.
