A two-point conversion was all the difference as the Arlington Renegades improved to 2-0 on the season with an 11-9 victory over the Houston Roughnecks (0-2) Sunday.
A nine-yard connection from quarterback Luis Perez to wide receiver Deontay Burnett broke a 3-3 stalemate, putting the Renegades up 9-3. After a successful two-point conversion, also to Burnett, Arlington led for good.
Coming off a 33-point performance in their season opener, the Renegades came out victorious in a different game style. The match was physical, hard-hitting and defensive, one that saw multiple players leave the game for injuries.
