He continues to make an impact on the field and his hustle on transition was rewarded with a crisp pass from Will Manny that led to his first professional goal! Game Results Atlanta Blaze 18 (OT)Ohio Machine 17It’s not easy playing against the Machine at home but the Blaze brought the heat and gave Ohio their first home loss of the season.
