CHICAGO (AP) — LeShon Johnson scored on a 2-yard run with 19 seconds left as the Chicago Enforcers beat the Las Vegas Outlaws 15-13 Sunday night, snapping a four-game losing streak.
Johnson’s touchdown capped an eight-play, 82-yard drive.
“Finally, things happened a little right for us after four very frustrating games,” Enforcers coach Ron Meyer said.
Charles Wiley scored on a 1-yard run in the third quarter as the Enforcers (1-4) scored their first touchdown in six quarters.
James McDougal made his first start as quarterback for Chicago and completed 17 of 22 passes for 169 yards.
Mark Grieb found Yo Murphy with touchdown passes of 19 and 7 yards in the first half for Las Vegas (3-2), but the Outlaws were held scoreless in the final two quarters.
Grieb made his first start for the Outlaws and completed 9 of 18 passes for 98 yards and two touchdowns. He was intercepted twice.
