The Boston Militia are the 2009 NORTH ATLANTIC DIVISION CHAMPS with an undefeated regular season record of 8-0!
Brickhouse leads a solid team performance by the Boston Militia to defeat Dallas, 34-14 in the first round of the IWFL playoffs! RB Mia Brickhouse led Boston both offensively and defensively, rushing for three touchdowns and grabbing two interceptions on the day, as the Militia downed the defending champions Dallas Diamonds, 34-14 in a first round IWFL playoff game. The Militia Defense was able to stop some big forces on the Diamond offense, while the Militia Offensive Line gave QB Allison Cahill and her running backs solid protection all night long. The win not only put Boston through to the Eastern Conference Championships, but elevated their ranking enough to earn the #1 seed and securing home field for the July 11th game against the D.C. Divas. The Divas defeated the Pittsburgh Passion 27-17 in their matchup.
