The Eagles, on their first offensive drive, struck first as Quarterback Robert Coleman ran 53 yards to the end zone for a touchdown. This gave the Eagles an early 7-0 lead.
Back on offense, the Pirates looked to answer following the Eagles touchdown, but they were held to another three and out by the Eagles’ defense, as linebacker Steven Bradshaw also got to the Pirates Quarterback on his drive for a sack. The Eagles, on offense, drove down the field and finished the drive off with Robert Coleman passing the ball to running back Matthew Caldera on a 14 yard pass for a touchdown.

The Eagles, who looked to rebound on offense following the fumble, went down the field and kicked a field goal to give the Eagles a 25-0 lead. The Pirates eventually threatened the Eagles’ defense by getting close to the end zone following big plays, but the Eagles’ defense stopped them on fourth down and kept the shut out going.
