TUCSON, AZ – The Tucson Sugar Skulls are back under the lights at the Tucson Convention Center
this Saturday, June 21, with everything on the line. Kickoff is set for 6:05 PM as the Skulls face off
against the Northern Arizona Wranglers in a critical Western Conference clash that could reignite their
playoff hopes.
Coming off a hard fought rivalry battle against the Arizona Rattlers, Tucson (4-6) is hungry to defend
home turf and snap their losing streak. With just a few games remaining in the regular season, this is a
must-win moment and the Sugar Skulls are ready to rise.
Battling to the Final Whistle
Last weekend in Glendale, the Sugar Skulls went toe to toe with the high-powered Arizona Rattlers.
Tucson's defense showed fight from the jump, with standout efforts from
Brion Murray,
and
Djimon Brooks. Special teams kept things close as
Kevin Macias drilled a deuce early to put
points on the board and energize the sideline.
Quarterback
Jorge Reyna continued to lead the charge, connecting with wideouts Larry Tripp
Harrington and
Jerome Buckner, while running back
Jamyest Williams found the end zone yet again
with his explosive play style. Despite falling behind late, the Skulls stayed aggressive and never let up
showcasing their signature grit and determination.
Back in the Boneyard: Wranglers in the Crosshairs
This week, the Sugar Skulls return to the Boneyard to face the Wranglers. The last meeting between these
teams was a grind, but Tucson is primed to flip the script behind its evolving offense and a defense
capable of game changing moments.
Look for Reyna to continue building chemistry with his receiving core, and expect
Jamyest Williams to
be a focal point, both on the ground and through the air. On defense, ballhawks like
Ahmad Lyons and
Kendrick Gladney are set to lead the charge in limiting the Wranglers' offensive rhythm and creating
turnovers.
Discipline, red-zone execution, and third-down conversions will be key as Tucson aims to turn
potential into production in front of a roaring home crowd.
All In for the Postseason
With playoff hopes still alive, every second counts, and the Sugar Skulls know the moment is now.
Saturday's showdown is more than just a game, it's a chance to rewrite the narrative and rally Tucson
toward a postseason run.
