ATO+ADPi
2009 Coed Champs - ATO+ADPi

As November arrived and Thanksgiving looms near on the horizon, so it was that another season of intramural flag football comes to a close. There were some familiar faces in this year's playoff, and some new heroes emerged as well to secure their place in intramural glory.

The playoffs began on the pristine emerald-green turf of Clark Field, a definite change from the often sloppy conditions at the standard intramural fields. While some teams are built for the trenches and the grind of the natural grass, others are built for the speed and finesse of the artificial surface. But to secure intramural glory, you would have to be successful on both. Phi Sig and Friends had cruised to a number one seed during the regular season on grass, but had no troubles on turf either, easily coasting into the championship game. But their opponent was a up-and-coming ATO+ADPi team who had fought their way through three tough opponents and braved the monsoon-like conditions in the semi-finals to reach the championship game. ATO+ADPi opened up the scoring with 6 points, but Phi Sig and Friends struck right back with a 10-point score by hitting a girl in the back of the endzone. Undaunted, ATO+ADPi fought back, taking the lead into the half, and never looking back from there. Phi Sig and Friends would not go quietly, cutting ATO+ADPi's lead to just 1 point at 32-31. But a late touchdown sealed the deal for ATO+ADPi, who knocked off the defending champs and claimed the Coed Championship.

The tension for the next game was already building before the first had even started, as a rowdy crowd began pouring into Clark Field to try and support their teams. Perennial contender SAE Team Punishment had cruised to a number-one regular season seeding and had decimated both their playoff opponents, including the defending runners-up in Phi Sig. But in their way were the defending champs themselves, ATO, who had out-brawled TKE and edged a stacked Phi Delt team en route to their second straight championship game. The game started and remained close throughout the first half, but SAE began to take over going into the final half. ATO quarterback Billy Giannone tried his best to rally his beleaguered team and comeback, but SAE Team Punishment shut the door and managed to secure a 34-14 victory over the defending champs.
