The Saint John Storm blew into Halifax on a windy Saturday and blew away the Halifax Explosion 46-0 in Maritime Women's Football League play.

Quarterback Lisa Harlow hit Michelle Young-Mather with a 15-yard touchdown pass to open the scoring, capping an 85-yard drive that put the Storm ahead for good. Harlow ran for another major on a QB sneak and Tammy Saunders and Lori Boyles ran for two TDs each, including a 35-yard dash by Boyles. Terri Shannon converted five two-point conversions.

Mather and Boyles each had an interception, Amanda Craine notched a sack and linebackers Jaclyn Brewer and Amber Dennis had eight tackles each.

The first-place Storm is now 3-0 and has outscored its opponents 116-6 heading into Saturday's action in Truro, N.S. against the Fredericton Gladiators.
