Tony's Stoners Busted 35-32 in Southern Utah Classic V at Kolob Reservoir By Mike's Powerful Posse!

(Kolob Reservoir, Utah)_Continuing to roll through the Zion Football League 2011 schedule, Mike's Posse lassoed their third championship of the year as they captured the Southern Utah Classic V, held at Kolob Reservoir, on August 21. The Posse ride to ZFL glory didn't come easy as Tony's Stoners battled hard in a 35-32 title tilt that wasn't decided until the last play. Beau's Cowboys also rode hard against the Posse, yet lost in a 37-34 triple overtime thriller in semi-final action. With the Southern Utah Classic V title in hand, Mike has now won 34 ZFL Tournaments.

Superstar Doug and his junior rangers Beau, Mark and Laurie did some great work behind the scenes to help create a great ZFL outdoor festivus.
