302 ELITE ATHLETES CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEWS & PREDICTIONS!!!
Championship Previews
8U (7-1) Delaware Ducks vs (6-0) Kent County Stallions
This is a very interesting Match-up, Ducks will be looking for revenge from week 1 when the Stallions Defeated the Ducks 12-0 at Red lion Christian Academy. The Ducks have since then gone on a 7 Game win streak out scoring opponents 242-6 only giving up 1 touchdown since the last time they played the stallions. On the other hand the stallions have out scored their opponents 179-24 since their last meeting with the Ducks. Which leaves 302 Elite Athletes to Believe that the Ducks will come out on top with that stellar Defensive attack that they have Starring (MLB) Mehki Corbin & (DT) Max Phipps. Stallions best bet is to get the ball to the outside early and fast if they wanna have a good chance at beating the Ducks for the 2nd time but we do not predict that to happen this time around.

10U (6-1) Wilmington Titans vs (6-1) Kent County Stallions
302 Elite Athletes Game of the Week is the most anticipated youth match-up that the state has been waiting for all season long. Titans finished the season as the #1 Seed and had a bye the first round of the playoffs. The stallions defeated the Titans just a few weeks ago 32-25 capped by a brilliant performance by their star (RB) Lamons. The Titans are a real gritty team and seem to be very fired up for the rematch just as the Stallions were when they upset the ducks last week to advance to the championship. The Stallions Offense has put up 171 points in just 6 games, The Titans Offense have scored 161 points. On the defensive side of the ball the stallions have given up just 59 points vs the titans who have only given up 52 points all season. This game should go down to the wire and will be determined by who turns the ball over least.

-DT Mikey Stevenson
-RB Tomir Bransford
-QB LD Emmens
Key To Victory: Limiting Turn-overs

14U (10-0) MOT Cowboys vs (7-4) MOT Colts
The MOT Cowboys have been playing lights out football all year after not being picked as the top dogs in the pre-season rankings. Cowboys have been winning games week in & week out. This week the they face the MOT Colts a team that the MOT league favors highly. The colts are pretty solid as well but have lost to the Cowboys 2x this season. Colts have been amped up in practice all week and look ready to try to pull of a big upset over the Cowboys who are led by their potent (RB) Mason Murphy who is a threat to take it to the house on any given play. 302 Elite Athletes believe that the Colts are talented enough to give the cowboys a run for their money & will be on hand to catch all of the action 11/18 at Middletown High Football stadium.
