ORLANDO – The San Antonio Brahmas are officially in the win column.
After suffering a tough loss in their season-opener last week, the Brahmas bounced back with an all-around performance in their first road game against the Orlando Guardians at Camping World Stadium. Quarterback Jack Coan completed 16 of his 24 passes and threw three touchdowns to three different receivers, as San Antonio picked up their first victory of the season 30-12.
The Brahmas put the first points on the board on the game’s opening drive. Coan capped a nine-play, 45-yard drive with a three-yard strike to tight end Deon Yelder for a 6-0 lead. Orlando tied the game back up with a touchdown of their own, but the Brahmas vaulted back in front late in the second quarter. This time, Coan marched the team 77 yards and found tight end Alize Mack for a 19-yard score, sending San Antonio into halftime with a 13-6 lead.
