Kelvin Bryant rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown Sunday to lead the Philadelphia Stars to a 27-6 victory over the Los Angeles Express.

The triumph lifted the Stars to 6-0, as they remain one of two undefeated teams alongside Chicago. Los Angeles fell to 3-3, but remain atop the Pacific Division by one-game.

Chuck Fusina, a standout at Penn State in the late 1970s, completed 11-of-19 passes for 113 including with one interception and two sacks. Allen Harvin also tallied 77 yards on fifteen totes with a pair of touchdown runs.

Los Angeles got its only points on a pair of field goals by Vince Abbott in the second stanza. Los Angeles' running woes continued with the team's leading rusher, LaRue Harrington, picking up just 50 yards on nine carries. 


In other weekend action; the Boston Breakers improved to 4-2 after drubbing Oakland by a score of  24-6; meanwhile the Michigan Panthers edged New Jersey by a 16-13 as Bobby Hebert tossed a trio of touchdown passes.
