St. Paul Bengals win nail-biter to keep season alive

ST. PAUL - While it appeared that the St. Paul Bengals had the game in hand after the first half on Saturday afternoon, the visiting Wainwright Warhawks had other plans, as they pushed through the cold, snowy conditions, almost stealing the win away from the St. Paul bantam football team.

Heading into the second half of the game, the score was 21-0 for the Bengals. After scoring a single point, the Warhawks found their feet and pushed hard, as the Bengals appeared the slip and slide through the skiff of snow on the field. 

The Warhawks scored three unanswered touchdowns, but due to missing the extra point on a couple, the Bengals were able to hold on to win the playoff game 21-20 - and keep their season alive.
