Damon Dowdell threw 4 TD passes and Nick Body
caught 2 of them as the home team, the Kalamazoo Xplosion, turned the ball over
far too many times in this game and was defeated by the Saginaw Sting at Wings
Stadium 41-37 for the 2008 Continental Indoor Football League Championship. It
looked like Kalamazoo kicker Brad Selent might have had won the game for the
formerly unbeaten at home (15-0 2 seasons) Xplosion on a late FG, but it was not to be for Kalamazoo. A ton of flags were
tossed in this one, and the Kalamazoo great DB David Gater did not do much to
speak of. Congrats to the Saginaw Sting on winning the CIFL championship. The Sting only lost 2 games all season long, once to the 12-0 Rochester Raiders and once in Rockford earlier this season to the Raptors and it is the Sting that grab
the big CIFL hardware this year. Not only does Saginaw win the league championship, but Body and Dowdell are both among the front runners for league MVP and Offensive Player of the Year awards. Congrats to the Saginaw Sting!
