Rush comeback stalls as Seals escape with 12-11 victory

It came down to the final seconds, but the Saskatchewan Rush fell to the San Diego Seals 12-11 at the SaskTel Centre on Saturday.

The road team dominated early but Clark Walter’s five goal effort along with Robert Church’s seven-point performance gave Saskatchewan a chance after a flurry of goals in the fourth quarter.

However, the comeback stalled. The Rush were unable to capitalize on a late opportunity as the Western Conference leading Seals snuck away from Saskatoon with a 12-11 victory.

Next up, 5-6 Saskatchewan will head to Calgary for St Patrick’s Day and a matchup with the Roughnecks on Friday.
