The Fishers Freight made several roster moves ahead of their road trip to Green Bay, but it wasn’t enough to secure a win. The Freight fell to the Blizzard Friday night, 55-39.
Costly mistakes plagued Fishers throughout the game. Critical penalties, mishandled snaps, an interception, and multiple failed fourth-down conversions proved too much to overcome.
Despite the final score, the Freight were competitive early on. They led 9-7 at the end of the first quarter, and the game remained close at halftime, with Green Bay holding a slim 24-23 lead.
Fishers opened the second half with possession but were quickly backed up to their own 10-yard line due to a penalty. A fumbled pitchout on the same drive gave Green Bay a short field, and the Blizzard capitalized with a quick touchdown to go up 31-23.
Shortly after, quarterback Carlos Davis was intercepted, and the Blizzard needed only two plays to find the end zone again, extending their lead to 37-23.
Early in the fourth quarter, the Freight turned the ball over on downs, and Green Bay responded with another touchdown, pushing the score to 45-23. From there, the game slipped further out of reach, despite Fishers’ efforts to rally.
The Freight return home to the Fishers Event Center on Saturday, June 7, where they’ll take on the Massachusetts Pirates at 7 p.m.
