CIFL: Seadogs, Bombers Control Their Own Destiny

NOTE: I know it's been a couple of months since I last updated this. I have pretty much been in Baseball mode in this time frame, and the UFL has kind of taken a backseat. So today, I will post a cliffs-notes version of recapping the last two CIFL games of Week 12 followed by the standings. And I will try to get back to a semi-regular posting schedule going forward. OK, enough apologizing, let's get back to the recaps.

With a 34-24 road victory over the Portland Pride (6-5), the Seattle Seadogs (7-4) can wrap up the CIFL West Division championship with a win over the Pride at Seattle next week.

Roman Shoe ran for 89 yards on 19 carries and scored two first-half touchdowns. Chili Jerris caught a touchdown pass to go with five catches for 79 yards. Curtis Kesterson went 20-of-37 passing for 218 yards, 2 TD and 2 INT. For the Pride, Reuben Findley went 25-of-39 passing for 300 yards, 2 TD and 3 INT and scored on a 16-yard touchdown run. Rex Doran caught 9 passes for 80 yards. The two teams will meet again in Seattle next week.

Meanwhile in Sacramento, the Michigan Bombers (8-3) were able to keep the Sacramento Knights (2-9) out of the end in the second half and won 20-12.

The Bombers ran for 99 yards on 31 carries, with touchdowns by Whitey Barnwell and Bernest Noon. Gitch Tims was 20-of-37 passing for 319 yards. Dalls Kilburn led with 6 catches for 98 yards. The Bombers will host the Detroit Neon next week, and a Michigan win could net the Bombers the CIFL East Division title. Derrick Todd came back from injury in the second quarter, replacing Dennis Sentry for the Knights and went 14-of-23 passing for 174 yards and a 8-yard touchdown pass to Chet Quince. The Knights host the Washington Warthogs next week.
