Jacksonville Sharks undefeated, return home Saturday
The Jacksonville Sharks continued their undefeated start to the season on Saturday night in Tuscon with a 28-21 win over the Sugar Skulls.
The Sharks have won two of their first three games on the road and they continue to use a stingy defense to key their wins. Jacksonville has allowed only 65 points combined in three games.
On Saturday against Tuscon, the Sharks allowed only 55 net yards passing and had four interceptions, including one at the goal line to seal the win late in the game. Jonathan Huggins came up with the big play to help bring home the third victory.
