Sorocaba Steelers Brings Down Sorocaba Wild Mules to Capture 4th Place

Indaiatuba Riders took advantage of 23.60 points from David Njoku (76 Rec Yds, 1 TD) and 22.10 from Brian Thomas Jr. (89 Rec Yds, 1 TD) to beat London Knights 98.08 to 85.80.

Holambra Dutch Gets Victory over Campinas Giants, Tacks On 3rd Straight Win

A primetime rally on Sunday Night Football (38.30 points, 40% of their total score) wasn’t enough for Campinas Giants, despite the best efforts of George Pickens (111 Rec Yds, 1 TD) and Najee Harris (102 Rsh Yds, 1 TD), as Holambra Dutch got the 134.80 to 94.94 victory.
