Shawn's Assassins Ousts Jim's Gold Miners 30-27 in 28th Zion Bowl and Captures Eighth ZFL Championship!

(Hurricane, Utah)_Coach Shawn Spendlove renewed his assault on the ZFL record book as his Assassins swept through and captured Zion Bowl XXVIII at Brenda's beautiful home on April 22nd. The Assassins rallied to come from behind in the title tilt to edge arch-rival Jim's Gold Miners 30-27 and give Shawn his eighth Zion Football League championship. The Gold Miners had a successful tourney as well, winning three games before slipping in the final. That effort raised the Gold Miners into undisputed fourth place in the 2012 ZFL standings.

Brenda was a gracious hostess, opening her lovely home to the ZFL masses. Her Navajo Tacos were the toast of the tourney and highlighted a grand buffet.
