The Watertown Red & Black players and coaching staff wrapped up their season last Saturday, October 01 at Alex Duffy Fairgrounds. It was a chance for everyone, especially head coach George Ashcraft, to savor a second straight league championship. The Red & Black went back-to-back with Empire Football League championships this year with an undefeated season. The championship trophy will end up in Billy Caprara’s office before returning to the Red & Black. The Caprara family, as team sponsor, are a big part of the organization’s success.
As a result of his outstanding performance at Quarterback, Watertown’s Jason Williams was named game MVP.
The Empire Football League has live streamed games worldwide the last several years to further promote the league and players. “This year we continued with implementation of the EFL Game of the Week by live streaming games every weekend” stated EFL Commissioner Dave Burch. “This EFL Championship turned in some pretty impressive stats for viewers worldwide”. The video from the championship game has been archived at EFL Live Stream. (click)
