GoldDiggers come back to knock off Nick in 127.50-92.82 romp

GoldDiggers beat expectations, cruising to a 127.50-92.82 victory over Nick, who fell short of projections. Nick took a 15.85-point lead on Thursday, but it was all GoldDiggers after that. They were led by Raheem Mostert, who racked up 109 yards from scrimmage and caught a touchdown pass for 24.83 points, and Travis Etienne Jr., who ran for 114 yards and a touchdown (22.15 points). The Dallas Cowboys defense (6 Pts Allowed, 312 Yds Allowed, 5 Turnovers) and Chris Olave (7 Rec, 106 Rec Yds) did everything they could for Nick in the loss. GoldDiggers (5-2) will look to build on their success against Honolulu Blue Myself, while Nick (3-4) take on We Run This Town in an effort to get some positive momentum.
