Boston’s Ironside, the nation’s number one ranked team, faced off against Toronto’s GOAT in the finals of the Northeast Regionals on Sunday.
The game started out with Ironside firing on all cylinders with no offensive line turnovers, leading to a solid 8-5 halftime lead. The second half saw a much more fired up GOAT, who started to make plays on both sides of the disc. Strong defense and excellent D line offense, which capitalized on Ironside miscues, would send them to a 10-8 lead. GOAT would nab another break setting up a GOAT game point.
After Jeff Lindquist caught a huck in the endzone, GOAT thought they had sealed the huge upset victory. But a foul was called for obstruction, which was upheld by the Observer, resulting in a GOAT turnover. It would completely throw off their rhythm and they let the game slip through their fingers as Ironside scored five straight to win the game 16-14.
Check out the full video below and our written recap of the Ironside/GOAT final with more details from the game. We joined the game after a quick Ironside offensive score.
