Chicago 58, Florida 51
Posted: Sunday June 10, 2001 03:02 AM

SUNRISE, Florida (Ticker) -- Joe Douglass broke a tie late in the fourth quarter with his fourth touchdown reception and Billy Dicken threw for eight TD's for the second time this season as the Chicago Rush defeated the Florida Bobcats, 58-51.

Douglass, who led all receivers with 10 catches and 165 yards, hauled in a 27-yard TD reception from Dicken with just 23 seconds left in the game to give Chicago (5-3) a 58-51 lead.

After hooking up with Douglass from 14-yards out late in the second quarter for a 30-28 lead at the half, Dicken threw a pair of TD passes in the third stanza, the second of which went to Douglass at the 7:54 mark that gave Chicago a 44-35 advantage.

It looked as though the Rush would take that lead into the fourth quarter, but Florida (3-5) tied the score at 44 on the strength of Marcus Keyes' interception return for a TD and a safety by John Moyer with 34 seconds left in the third.

Dicken helped Chicago open the scoring in the fourth quarter with a 26-yard TD pass to Cornelius Bonner before connecting with Douglass for the deciding score.

Dicken completed 22-of-38 passes for 316 yards and an interception for the Rush, who have won four of their last five games.

Rickey Foggie paced the Bobcats with five TD passes and 227 yards.
