Well, Andy the upset is not to be. The Golden Eagle fell to the Vikings of Northwest 13-7 but they did but go down without a fight. Throughout the whole game the Eagle Defense held off the Northwest Vikings and the offense had huge plays and lots of momentum that could have resulted in a few touchdowns but they did not happen. So at the half it was 0-0. Then the second half Jordan Colon intercepted the ball with 2:52 in the third and the Eagles marched it down the field which resulted in a Touchdown by Tyrell Dumpson with 1.2 seconds left in the third. Eagles up 7-0. Then the Fourth quarter the Vikings scored early but missed the PAT. 6-7 Smith. and then with 19.4 seconds left the Vikings threw a long pass down the field and then with 4.7 seconds the Vikings threw the heartbreaking TD Catch and then FInal score
