Congratulations to Emory A, winners of Sword Bowl 2003 at UTC.
Capping a very competitive tournament, Emory A (the only team in
either bracket to go undefeated) survived via tiebreaker shootouts in
both the semifinals and finals, winning the latter over Georgia Tech
by 5 points for the title. Emory B finished 3rd, with Middle
Tennessee State fourth.
Hats off also to South Carolina. In the consolation finals, South
Carolina beat UTC A in yet another close match. Macon State took 3rd
in the consolations.
Full details, stats, gratitude, etc., will follow after much sleep.
