Toth had just wrapped up his coaching career and is headed into administration at Frankfurt starting next fall. A this has been a great year at Frankfurt a Toth said following the Squeaker. A it would have been Nice for the kids to win the game and finish undefeated but they have nothing to be ashamed of. They re the aaa champions and they played an outstanding game today. We just did no to get those conversion  the conversion Points were the two Points Tobias Slater saved with a flying lunge that deflected a Chad Nighbert pass away from Frankfurt receiver Webster Lang Home. This came after the eagles had scored a touchdown on the first play of their Possession in the tiebreaker system which Dodds employs. Wiesbaden scored a couple of minutes earlier and then made a two Point conversion after a missed Pat kick was voided by a roughing the kicker Levy against the eagles. It was another one of those games a just like the first one when Nighbert hit Lang Home on a 64-Yard to pass with 36 seconds remaining to give the eagles a thrilling 27-26 win.
