Unknown Talent (UT) took advantage of the Invaders continued lack of execution and energy to coast to a 19-6 victory. Again, the Invaders showed their propensity to give up the big play on relatively simple plays, such as; fly routes and screens. The Invaders were able to salvage one score when QB Michael Hawkins hit TE Matthew Anderson with a 30 yard touchdown pass. With the Metro Cup coming up, will the Invaders snap out of their funk?
Even though the Invaders defense showed progress from last week, WeRone was able to come up with two big plays to defeat them 13-6. The Invaders led 6-0 at halftime, after QB Michael Hawkins Hit TE Ed Greeen with a 25 touchdown pass. On the first play of the second half, WeRone ran a simple screen play for a 65 yard touchdown. After the Invaders were unable to generate a scoring drive, WeRone regained possession and scored on 3rd and goal from the Invaders' 25 yard line on another simple screen play to secure the victory 13-6.

The Fairmont Heights Falcons (FHF) put on an offensive exhibition and defeated the Invaders 32-26 in overtime. The Invaders received the first possession of the game. After completing a 40 yard pass to TE Lionel Anderson, QB Michael Hawkins completed a 7 yard touchdown pass to WR Taurus McGhee. The 2-point conversion kick was made by George Wyatt to give the Invaders an 8-0 lead. FHF responded immediately with a 65 yard touchdown pass on their first pass to WR Stephan Lee. The Invaders answered right back with a 54 yard td pass from Hawkins to McGhee to give the Invaders a 14-6 lead. Again, FHF responded with a 65 yard touchdown pass on their first play of the series to cut the Invaders' lead to 14-12. Unphased, the Invaders excecuted another scoring drive, capping it off with a 2 yard td pass from Hawkins to BB Danny Gay. After finally stopping FHF on a possession, the Invaders executed another scoring drive that ended with 10 td pass from Hawkins to TE Matthew Anderson to give the Invaders a 26-12 lead. The Falcons continued to burn the Invaders scoring additional touchdowns from 52 yards and 38 yards, and added a 2-point conversion to tie the game at 26-26 at the end of regulation. The Invaders received the first possession of overtime and the Falcons defense held them scoreless in 4 downs. FHF began their overtime posssession with a hitch to their left wideout for a 10 yard gain. Then, on 3rd and goal, they completed a pass in the back of the Invaders' end zone to come away with a 32-26 overtime victory.
The Dozia All-Stars edged the Invaders 12-8 to come up with the first of their two wins for the day. Dozia came up with the first big play of the game, when their left cornerback (Pee Wee) picked off a deflected pass and ran it back 60 yards for a touchdown to give them a 6-0 halftime lead. Joseph Chaney Jr., replaced an injured Michael Hawkins at QB and led the Invaders on a scoring drive to tie the score. George Wyatt kicked the 2-point conversion to give the Invaders an 8-6 lead. However, the Invaders defense continued to be porous and allowed Dozia to catch a short pass and literally run through it for a 50 yard score to take the lead and steal a 12-8 victory. The Invaders took a couple of lumps this weekend, but as they always do, they will bounce back strong and finish on top.
