Palmetto Bugs Re-Claim Sunday “A” Championship
After coming up short the past 2 seasons the Palmetto Bugs returned to their championship form and won Georgia Sports Leagues Sunday “A” Championship.
Finishing the season at 9-1 with their only loss to the back to back champions Dynamic, Palmetto entered the playoffs as the #2 seed. They would defeat a scrappy Out of Shape team 12-6 and then moved on to defeat Game Time to earn a spot in the championship game.
Team Dynamic went an undefeated 10-0 this season and was looking for a league record 3-peat. They dominated most of the season and look primed to take home a 3rd straight championship. They would defeat the Eagles in round 1, and win a hard fought 1 pt victory over A Game to advance to play Palmetto Bugs in the Championship game.
#1 and #2 would face off for the title; These two teams have combined for the last 5 GSL “A” league championships. The game was everything you expected from the top 2 teams. Both teams showing their offensive skills and defensive schemes that have made them to best 2 teams over the past several seasons.
It came down to the end as Palmetto lead by 6 late in the game. Dynamic took only 4 plays to drive down and score to tie the game, a perfect extra point play gave them a 1 pt. lead. Unfortunately there was still a little over a minute on the clock, plenty of time for Palmetto to drive down and score. A huge 4th down conversion kept the game alive and it came down and goal from the 5 yard line with 13 seconds. I leaping catch in the back of the end zone gave the Bugs the lead with 9 sec. left. Dynamic made a great last second attempt but a beautiful 60 yard bomb bounced off a couple of players and was just inches away from landing in a Dynamic receivers hands. Palmetto Bugs survived and won 26-21
Congratulations Palmetto Bugs. Georgia Sports Leagues 2010 Sunday “A” Champions.
