The Fujitsu Frontiers have a chance to cement their status as an X League dynasty, after earning their eighth consecutive trip to the Japan X Bowl with a 34-3 victory Sunday over the Elecom Kobe Finies in their regular-season finale.
The Fujitsu defense stood tall all game, keeping the Finies out of the end zone. The Frontiers sacked Elecom quarterback Cody Sokol seven times and picked him off three times.
Frontiers quarterback Michael Birdsong steer the offense, completing 15 of 21 passes for 186 yards and leading the team with 81 yards rushing. The big, 195-centimeter American threw for one touchdown and ran for another.
