Blizzard cut down Slaughter

The Green Bay Blizzard took down the Chicago Slaughter, 63-36, on Friday night.

In the process, running back LaRon Council took down the franchise's single-game rushing record. Council tallied 104 yards on 19 carries to break the previous record of 98 set by Randy Bell in 2010.

It's a significant milestone for the 10th-year franchise, but also keep in mind the first seven seasons the Blizzard played in arenafootball2, which doesn't cater to the running game.

The 5,346 in attendance at the Resch Center was also the biggest crowd since the new owners took over for the 2010 season.

More to come over the weekend.
