MANCHESTER - The Middlesex Warlords erased a 19-point deficit in the second half on Saturday night to oust the Southern Vermont Storm from the New England Football League playoffs with a 26-25 win at Applejack Field.

The Storm (7-4) led 19-6 at halftime after Mike Dunham's last-second touchdown catch and pushed the lead to 25-6 after the break but turnovers and miscommunication cost the hosts down the stretch, coach Tighe Stratton said.

Marcus Anderson and Mike Waters also scored for the Storm.
