The Trenton BIC Take the Northeast Championship and Remain Undefeated with Victory Over The Paterson U, 31-19

A7FL Division Championships and National Playoff Positioning On The Road to a Piece of the $50,000 Prize Money.

If there were any doubt that the Trenton BIC was the team to beat on the road to the A7FL National Championship Game, it got decimated on Sunday, defeating the Paterson U 31-19. The now number one seed in the national playoff standings punched their ticket to a first-round bye defeating the Paterson U in the Northeastern Championship game airing across the country on Stadium.

While Sterry Codrington led the way for the BIC, it was head’s up defense, constant pressure, and two key interceptions that iced the game, defeating the back-to-back A7FL Champion Paterson U for the second time in the 2022 season.

All is not lost for the defending champions, their road to a third title comes with more peril than many thought at the outset of 2022, taking more than two losses for the first time in over four seasons.

The other division title reigns have been locked as well as the Vegas Force and the Baltimore Rare Breed join the BIC and Tampa Nightcrawlers as the first four “Division Champions” in league history.

While the NightCrawlers punched their ticket a week ago against the Orlando Ghosts, the Rare Breed staked their claim as the Mid-Atlantic Division Champions defeating championship contender the Baltimore Gators in a close and contentious 22-20 victory.

On the other side of the continent, the Vegas Force join the Rare Breed as two first-year franchises to make it to the National Playoff as a division titleholder, defeating the 2021 division titleholder, LA Aces 18-13 on the Aces’ home field.

Now we await Wild Card Weekend, which will feature the NightCrawlers playing host to the DC Buzz and the Force traveling to New Jersey after being called out by the Rahway Shnowtribe in a battle of expansion teams that will air live next Sunday on Stadium live at 4 pm et.
