On the next play, Stanley hit Jason Willis for a six-yard score.<\/p>\n<p>The KISS responded quickly. After a long return by Los Angeles\u2019 A.J. Cruz (39 yards), quarterback Aaron Garcia connected with offensive lineman Julius Wilson on a screen play which traveled 17 yards to the end zone.<\/p>\n<p>San Jose scored the game\u2019s next two touchdowns on passes to rookie wide receiver Dominiqu Curry (15 and 13 yards, respectively).<\/p>\n<p>It was a night of 39 as Garcia threw a 39-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Donovan Morgan with 8:39 in the second quarter, making the score 21-14. The SaberCats then scored on a seven-play, 6:42 series capped by a 31-yard pass from Stanley to Jason Willis.<\/p>\n<p>The KISS were unable to capitalize on a failed SaberCats onside kick and San Jose scored on the following drive, just before the half (Stanley to Reggie Gray on a 10-yard pass with :10 left).<\/p>\n<p>Los Angeles opened the second half on a 26-yard aerial score (Garcia to Morgan), making things 21-35 after the kick. The KISS continued the offensive surge on the following possession, capping a four-play drive with another Garcia-to-Morgan connection (27 yards).<\/p>\n<p>Following two scoring drives by the SaberCats, the\u00a0KISS tacked on seven points with the game\u2019s final Garcia-Morgan connection (leaving the score at 49-35). Morgan finished the game with 11 receptions, 177 yards and four touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>San Jose scored twice in the final minute on a 16-yard pass and a 13-yard interception return by Simeon Castille to finish it off.<\/p>\n<p>The KISS fell to 2-9 with the loss while San Jose improved to 8-4.<\/p>\n<p>The KISS return home next Saturday to take on the Portland Thunder.
