• Quarterback Cedquan Smith scored the winner in overtime as the unbeaten Miami Gardens Bulldogs edged the Miami Gardens Vikings 6-0 to win the inaugural FYFL 100s Super Bowl also at Blanche Ely High School.

After a scoreless regulation, each team had four downs to score points from the opposition’s 10-yard line in overtime. Willie Floyd intercepted a Vikings pass to thwart the first possession of overtime.

The Bulldogs offense then took over, giving the ball twice to game MVP Chavon Wright who ran three and five yards to the Vikings 2-yard line. Wright also played well at linebacker. On third down, Smith muscled through the line thanks in part to blocking by James Williams, and the celebration began.

The Vikings’ Aaron Conyers intercepted a Bulldogs’ pass to end regulation, forcing overtime. Wright had a 45-yard run, and Eugene Holmes caught a 6-yard pass from Smith on fourth-and-5, before Conyers big interception.
