Tucson Sugar Skulls win 55-35 at Duke City

ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico – Quarterback Demry Croft scored six touchdowns and the Tucson Sugar Skulls leveled their record to 1-1 with a 55:35 win at Duke City.

“We knew we were losing,” said head coach Dixie Wooten. “We wanted to come in and win this game.”

The Sugar Skulls intercepted three passes in the first half and went into half time 35: 6. Mike Jones also ran for two touchdowns for Tucson.

It was the first home game for Duke City, also 1-1, which played its first season in the Indoor Football League. Rattler’s head coach and co-owner of Sugar Skulls, Kevin Guy, was in attendance.

The Sugar Skulls will play next Saturday against Iowa, the team that coached Wooten before the Sugar Skulls hired him after the 2019 season. The Tucson Arena allows a fan capacity of 100 percent. The game will also be broadcast on KGUN-TV sister station CW Tucson.
