“Coming from a victory against the Grizzlies and a good break, Cascade has been strengthened with Charles Mitchell, and can muster its full Squad. Eagles has 15 players, and is coming to town lacking skilled lineman Derek Wolfe. Cascade still expects a tough game from a Squad that includes star blitzers Dante Hightower and Keith Jackson, Quarterback Derek Carr and superstrong Dontari Poe. Eagles have ambitions to Challenge the Razorbacks for the divisional title, and needs a win. No way are they going to let us off easy.

Homecrowd is at a disappointing 10.000 Crimson shirts, while the Eagles can muster all of 17.000 fans dominating the stands at The Pool With in their silver and grey. Eagles win the coin toss and choose to start receiving. In the very first round, Tony Franklin fouls and kills Dennis Gräbner. The apo comes out, and manages to save his life, though. Thumbs up and Dennis will be back later in the season when his fractured aram has healed. Cascade gathers on their right side, so Carr picks up the ball and goes to the other side, covered by Hightower, Staley and Westbrook. The rest of the Eagles battle it out with the Cascade players. This does not go so well for the Eagles, as Taggart, the Eagles kicker, is killed by Turbin, and LaMichael James is KO'd by Manfred. Disregarding Carr and his Escorts, this leaves only 5 Eagles battling 10 Cascade players, so Eagles sends Hightower to help out. This does not change much, so Eagles quarterback Carr finally decides to do a quick score to get his players out of the fix, which was just what the Cascade wanted. Carr runs in the TD unopposed, but there is still half of first half left for Cascade to score.

Cascade put on Hoffman and TJ and are ready to play offense. The homecrowd decides to get in and stuns Kalu with a rock. Eagles are not given the chance to recover from the shock as aggressive Cascade players overrun their LOS. Darling is stunned, and Staley and Foles KO'd, although the last KO was a foul by Crazy Crawford, who true to form managed to get himself evicted from the game by the ref for celebrating his foul... Nevertheless, there are now 10 cascade players vs 9 Eagles. Eagles try to put on some pressure by marking Cascade ballcarrier TJ with Fleming and using Westbrook, Waters and Franklin to fend off the other Cascade players, but an Althoff blitz KO's Fleming and TJ is free. He moves to the midline, and hands the ball over to Vick Ballard, who runs with it up the Cascade left flank. Other Cascade players surround Hightower and Billy Winn fouls him. He has to leave the game badly hurt, but the ref is there and spots Billy Winn's foul. Off with him, too. With only 7 players left on the Field and no one near Ballard, Eagles give up on chasing him and tries to take out Althoff. Franklin's foul fails, and with help from Hoffman and Hessel, Althoff comes back and hits Franklin, sending him off badly hurt. The two most potent weapons in the Eagles arsenal, star blitzer Hightower and dirty player Franklin are now removed for the rest of the game. Keith Jackson is the only Eagle who tries to do something about Ballard, but he is promptly KO'd by Turbin. Westbrook makes a final attempt at hitting Ballard, but fails and Ballard can run in the equalizer with only seconds left on the clock of hte first half.

Only Fleming Returns from KO, and the Eagles only have 8 players left to start the second half. Cascade are Three players short, but still has 13 left. They keep TJ and the kicker off the field and start with receiving in the second half. With an 11 to 8 advantage and the ball, the victory in the game seems certain even with a half left to play. However, Blood Bowl being Blood Bowl, you can never be sure.

Aggressive Cascade players og for the quick snap and KO's Kalu and stuns the rest of the Eagles LOS, while Anders picks up the ball and keeps it in the backfield for a while. The remaing five Eagles tries to stick together on their left side, but Cascade moves the ball on the same side and puts heavy pressure on them as Althoff KO's Waters. Dontari Poe is Althoff's next target, and he has to be carried off with a gouged eye. Carmichael is next, sent off badly hurt by Ballard, and when Manfred KO's Fleming, Cascade are close to clearing the field. With 1 Eagle killed, 1 seriously injured, 3 badly hurt and 7 KO'd, only Carr, Darling and Westbrook still refuse to leave the Field. However, they also refuse to get down, and Cascade players do not bother to foul them. Anders can run in the winning TD unopposed at the end of the half. 2-1 Cascade.

Only five Eagles in the final formation, but with no chance for a one-turner, Eagles settle for a Westbrook completion, and Carr ends the match by blitzing Cascade kicker Grompfel and sending him off badly hurt.

A convincing win for aggressive Cascade players who ruled the field from the start to the very end. Disspirited Eagles players could not get much done, and was far from showing what we know they can do in this match. On a victorious Cascade team, Althoff once again stood out with 2 cas and 3 KO's in 11 Blocks. Ballard managed a cas and a TD, and Anders made the other TD and a completion.
