Much has been written about the Hampton Rogues and their Trillium Tour success. They have many titles under their belts and have made countless championship game appearances over the years. In Kingston they would have to face one of the craftiest qb’s of them all, our timeless President, Ed Laverty, and his Silver Bullets. Although the Bullets don’t feature nearly the kind of roster they once had back in the day, they still have enough experience to make moves on the field.

Let’s see who the Rogues and Bullets had to face before taking to the field in their championship game, beginning with the quarter-finals.

Quarter-Finals

Mississauga Axemen 24 vs Niagara Muddogs 0

Ottawa Silver Bullets 32 vs Montreal Bigg Dogg 18

Hamilton Wolves 27 vs Ottawa Spartans 24

Oshawa Hampton Rogues 30 vs Sta Catherine’s Lizards 14

Semi-Finals

Hampton Rogues 30 vs Mississauga Axemen 22

Ottawa Silver Bullets 34 vs Hamilton Wolves 28

The Rogues and Bullets had to go through experienced squads, in the Lizards, Wolves and Axemen before earning the right to compete for the title. Both teams were tested in the quarter and semi-final match ups, which was advantageous for the Rogues and their larger and healthier roster.

This advantage was obvious from the start to the finish of the game, as the Rogues dominated much of this contest. They would handily capture their second title of the season, defeating the Bullets 30 to 19. Congratulations gentlemen!
