New Haven and Portland contested the NERFU Championship in New Haven on April 26th, and New Haven emerged 49-22 winners. New Haven will play Monmouth in the next round of playoffs, with a trip to Pittsburgh for the National quarter-finals the reward for the winner of that game.
In New Haven, the morning rains subsided enough to make the ground playable. Portland stormed out of the gates, scoring two early tries for a 12-3 lead after eighteen minutes. With the ball a bit slippery, the game had the feel of a victory being secured up front, and New Haven started using its strength to come back into the game. Tries from Elliott Wangaard and Rich Kirkland as well as astute kicking from Sean Lills pushed New Haven into the lead. With only a few minutes to the half, Greg Wachter added another try which helped bring the half time score to 25-12 to New Haven at the half.
Portland suffered a loss with the departure of their influential number eight and outhalf, and New Haven pressed home their advantage, with Kirkland getting his second try of the day. Portland quickly responded to narrow the gap to 30-17, but New Haven replied just as quickly to bring the score to 37-17. With the clock ticking away, Portland started to get a bit daring, but New Haven tightened its defense and kept Portland at bay. New Haven extended the lead with another seven points and with ten minutes left all New haven had to do was defend. The last few minutes saw the teams exchange scores, Portland pressing to the end and closed out the scoring with a try to leave the final score at 49-22.
