WARREN, Pa. – There was an offensive explosion in the Warren County NFL Little Legends Flag Football League on Tuesday.
A 1-point conversion proved to be the difference for the Steelers over the Titans as Triton Ringer (Steelers) and Gideon Milliman (Titans) traded touchdowns throughout the game.
Meanwhile, the Cowboys’ potent combination of Alex Haight and Seth Mocny was enough to stave off Harrison Williams’ rushing prowess in a win over the Dolphins.
Full results and recaps follow.

Triton Ringer had four touchdowns, but it was his 1-point conversion pass to Parker Blum that was the difference as the Steelers topped the Titans, 25-24.
Gideon Milliman put the Titans on the board first with a rushing touchdown, but Ringer answered with a TD run of his own on the next series to tie the game at 6-6.
