Report

The NOLA Gold host the Chicago Hounds down in Louisiana, looking to keep their strong start to the 2024 season going.

The Chicago Hounds however, thought otherwise. The hosts took a 14-5 lead into half time, but the Hounds struck back right after half time and although the Gold did extend their lead to 21-12, a controversial red card and being down to 13 men for 10 minutes meant that they would not score again. The visitors fully exploited this, scoring 33pts in the second half to secure a comfortable BP victory on the road and put a serious dent in the Gold’s chase of 1st place in the East.

At the time, this was the most points ever scored by the Chicago Hounds, and the largest winning margin (17) in club history!
