Murcia Cobras, Las Rozas Black Demons stay unbeaten in Spanish League

The Murcia Cobras and Las Rozas Black Demons both kept their unbeaten records intact last weekend in the fifth week of play in Spanish American Football League while the Mallorca Voltors surprised the Valencia Firebats in Group A action.

The Voltors, who had lost to Valencia by a score of 18-0 in the opening weekend of the season, stunned the visiting Firebats by taking a 19-0 lead into the fourth quarter. But Valencia mounted a furious comeback overtaking the Voltors 20-19 midway through the final period. However, quarterback Barry Craig Coffman, who had already thrown for two touchdowns and scored another on his own, caught an option pass from Henri Laine to seal the win.

Valencia quarterback Alexander Mckean scored a rushing touchdown as did Kris Wedderburn and Nayim Mohamed.
