Tampa, FL - Tommy Grady completed 6 of 6 passes for 92 yards and 2 TD's to lead the Jacksonville Sharks to an early 13-7 lead over the Storm in the 1st quarter at Amalie Arena.
The Storm wasted no time getting things underway, with Mike Washington returning the opening kickoff coast to coast, to give Tampa a 7-0 lead! But it took Jacksonville just one play to get on the board themselves, as Tommy Grady connected with Joe Hill’s for a 48 yard TD strike. The pat was blocked and the Storm retained the lead at 7-6.
On Tampa’s ensuing possession, they were able to get the ball inside the 2 yard line, but unable to get into the end zone and turned the ball over on downs. The Sharks were able to capitalize on the turnover, going 49 yards in 6 plays, capping off their drive with an 8-yard TD pass from Grady to Moqut Ruffins. This gave Jacksonville a 13-7 lead.
