Mammoths succumb to Wolverines in 137.70-87.11 landslide

There's no sugarcoating it, Mammoths didn't do their job, at least based on projections, as Wolverines rolled to a 137.70-87.11 win. Wolverines took a 5.84-point lead on Thursday behind Shaq Thompson (13.75 points) and never gave it up. Jimmy Garoppolo (240 Pass Yds) and Cody Barton (9 Tackles, 1 Int) did everything they could for Mammoths in defeat. Wolverines (4-6) will look to add to their success against Strait Outta Bounds, while Mammoths (3-7) seek to get some positive momentum against FriendsOfDonCherry.
