Travis has great second half as Lightning pull off 31-7 win against Mountain Range

Travis in the slot had 3 touches in the second half on Friday night for 77 yds and a TD.

"I was really frustrated in the first half", Travis Sears admitted after the Lightning's opening game on Friday night over Mountain Range. Up only 10-7 Travis and his teamates had 10 penalties and were playing very sluggish at halftime.

The Lightning scored on it's first three possesions of the second half and put it away mid way through the 3rd period when Luke Bublits hit Travis for a 25 yd TD. Travis finished the night with 3 catches for 77 yards and one score, all in the second half.

The Lightning get Ft. Collins on home on Friday night.

Travis Wins MVP/Sportsmanship Award at the NFL 7on7 Tournament in New Orleans

Tavis Sears (pictured here with his Dad Larry and Bronco legend Billy Thompson) was a member of the Broncos 7on7 team that took 3rd place in the NFL national tournament in New Orleans this summer.

Travis stood out and was one of the favorite receivers of Bear Creek QB Zach Thennell and won the MVP / Sportsmanship award at the end of camp.

Travis sprained his shoulder in a scrimmage earlier in the day and couldn't play with his teamates at Invesco Field Friday night - but he will be ready for action this Friday as he and the Lightning open up against Mountain Range.

Congratulations Travis...
