Big Win On The Road

The Bravest Football Club continued their winning ways with a 60 - 3 victory over the Tampa Bay Sentinels. Tampa is in its first year in the NPSFL and was down right from the beginning. The Sentinels received the opening kickoff, but miscues early on led to the Bravest being on top 2 - 0 in the first minute of play. By the end of the first quarter the FDNY had a comfotrtable 33-0 lead. The regular cast of characters were the ones doing the scoring for the Bravest...Davan to Tunison, Neuman, O'Reilly, and DeFreitas running it in. Hardly a touchdown from under 20 yards out. The biggest difference was Justin Waltz connecting on every extra-point. Never kicking for the Bravest before, you wouldn't have noticed the difference. Oostmeyer who?

     The FDNY Football Team will next be in action on Friday night, May 16th, when they travel to the Philadelphia Blue Flame. Kickoff is 7:30 at Northeast High School in Philadelphia.

     The next two games are huge for the Bravest since the NYPD Finest lost to the LAPD Centurions. If the Bravest can beat their next two opponents, they will be in this years National Championship.

     Don't forget, Sunday, June 1st against the NYPD at Hofstra University.

Bravest Unbeaten in Flag Tournament

Two out of two years the Bravest Football Club has made it to the Championship game of the Local 2000 Flag Football Tournament, and two years in a row they have faced the Camden City Fire Department, and two years in a row Camden has not been able to beat the FDNY.

The BFC finished up Saturday 2-0 beating Potomac Valley, and Baltimore City, giving the Bravest the # 4 Seed. FDNY faced Frederick County to open the day, then Potomac Valley once again, neither game was easy, but the Bravest came out on top in both. That set up a semi-final game against the US Army Ft Dettrick, who was the # 1 seed. The Bravest were able to keep them at bay winning the game to set up a re-match of the previous years championship.

Camden changed up quareterbacks from last year, going with a speed game, but the FD defense was able to hold them to only one score. Joe Metress and Ryan Davan switched places for the day, with Davan catching more than one toucdown and picking up a couple 4th down conversions. The Bravest defense was led by Matt Quinn, who had several picks and hardly missed a flag.
