The Sarnia Flag Football Association played the Bluewater Cup Championship on Sunday December 06 under sunny and cool skies in Sarnia.  The Bluewater Power Titans, looking to defend their champion title for the 5th time, narrowly defeated the Lambton Metal Service Rampage by the score of 19 to 14.  This game featured two very evenly matched teams and was a repeat of the 2008 championship game and was everything that should be expected in a final game. 
 

    The Rampage took the lead early and by half, the score was 14-7 against the Titans.  But Titan defense held strong and with 2 goal line stands and and a single touchdown, with 5 plays left in the game, the Rampage still held the lead 14-13.  Then Titan QB Peter Faasse found All Star Reciever Russell Pettypeice in the endzone and the lead finally shifted to the Titans by a score of 19-14 with 4 plays left in the game.
 

    But the Rampage would not be denied and in 4 plays with 1 plays left and at 4th down, they stood at half field looking to hard to upset the Titans.  Under hard pressure from the Titan D-Line, Rampage QB Devon Johnson threw a long pass that was picked off by Titan Jason Cain and that it seemed the Titan 5-pete was complete....but the celebration was short lived as penalty flags were on the field.  An interference charge against the Titans allowed the Rampage to have a second chance (shades of Montreal Allouettes?), 10 yards closer.

    But again the Titan D-line pressed hard and just as Johnson threw, big Mike Griffin knocks the thrown ball to the ground and like the ball, so to went the chances of the Rampage to upset the Titans.  For the fifth time in 5 years, the Bluewater Power Titans emerged champions of the Sarnia Flag Football Association.
 

    The SFFA would like to thank all the players and supporters for this season.  It was an incredible season and promises to be even better next year.
