Toros shut out Kings, improve to 2-2

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - The Somerton Toros picked up their second win of the season Tuesday, shutting out the Kofa Kings 9-0 at Irv Pallack Field.

Kofa quarterback Murray made several attempts to move the Kings offense down the field, including a third-quarter completion to senior Ziyann Hicks. Somerton's Melodie Chavain made the flag pull to end the play.

On the very next snap, sophomore Dailany Martinez broke through the Kofa protection and brought Murray down for a sack.

Later in the game, Somerton's defense came up with its biggest play of the night.

With Kofa backed up near its own goal line, Arlene Mena got around the blocker and brought Murray down in the end zone for a safety.

The Toros held on for the 9-0 victory, improving to 2-2 on the season. Kofa remains winless at 0-5.

Both teams return to action Tuesday, when Somerton travels to Calexico. While Kofa hosts Holtville.
