The Renegades (3-1) led 16-15 when Dae Dae Hunter rushed 3 yards for a touchdown with 13:47 left in regulation to give the Renegades a bigger cushion. The two-point conversion pass failed.
Later in the final quarter, Max Duggan drove the Battlehawks (2-2) down the field. On a fourth-down play from the Arlington 3-yard line, he was picked off at the goal line by cornerback Harris, who returned it the length of the field with 33 seconds left. The two-point conversion pass from Luis Perez to JaVonta Payton was successful.
Perez was 17 of 25 for 149 yards, one touchdown pass of 2 yards to Payton and one interception returned 44 yards for a TD by St. Louis’ Willie Harvey. Arlington’s Chris Odom returned a fumble 39 yards for a score in the first quarter.
Duggan was 8 of 17 for 78 yards and two picks in relief of Battlehawks starter Manny Wilkins, who left the game with an ankle injury. Rodrigo Blankenship was 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts of 55, 31 and 53 yards.
