ST. LOUIS, Mo. (Matrix Midwest) - The St. Louis Batttlehawks were victorious Saturday in their first-ever meeting with the Orlando Storm and former head coach Anthony Becht.

St. Louis jumped out to a 25-0 lead following scores by running back Kylin James, wide receiver James Bostic, and quarterback Harrison Frost.

Orlando began to climb back into the game in the second half. With the help of some huge defensive plays, the Storm scored 14 points in the third quarter.

But after coming up short on a 4th and 13 in the fourth quarter, the comeback stalled out, and St. Louis was able to put the game to bed. They are now 3-2, and sit in fourth place in the UFL standings.

The Battlehawks will now prepare to travel to Louisville for the Derby Classic on Thursday, April 30, at 7 p.m.
