The Centurions fell to the Orca 23-7 in a decisive World Championship game at their home stadium on January 24, 2027. Orca head coach James Jimenez led his team to an early lead that the Centurions, coached by Scott Xiong, could not overcome.

The Orca struck first in the opening quarter with an 80-yard rushing touchdown by fullback Lance Wight, followed by a successful extra point by James Rogers, putting the away team ahead 7-0. The Orca extended their lead with a 22-yard field goal by Rogers late in the first quarter, making it 10-0.

The Centurions struggled to mount offensive momentum and were hindered by a key interception thrown by quarterback Paul Ponder at the 5:29 mark of the first quarter. Despite completing 23 of 36 passes for 130 yards and one touchdown, Ponder threw two interceptions total. On the ground, Charles Booth led the team with 77 rushing yards, while Benjamin Bartz scored the team's only touchdown, a rushing score.

The Orca’s kicking game was flawless with James Rogers converting all three field goals attempted, while their ground game dominated time of possession. Running backs Roy King and Pedro Hoskins combined for 165 rushing yards, with Hoskins also contributing a receiving touchdown late in the second quarter. The Orca capitalized with a touchdown run by Hoskins just before halftime to increase their lead to 20-0.

The Centurions' defense forced two interceptions and registered one sack but could not contain the Orca’s rushing attack. The Centurions failed to convert on any third downs and did not visit the red zone during the game.

Punter Ned Webb was active throughout, booting multiple long punts totaling over 300 yards, but his efforts did not shift momentum in favor of the Centurions. Penalties were a minor factor, with the Centurions committing four for 20 yards and the Orca three for 25 yards.

The Centurions scored a late touchdown but were unable to close the gap as the Orca’s defense held firm in the second half.

Orca head coach James Jimenez's strategy to emphasize the running game and rely on effective field goals proved successful against Scott Xiong’s squad. The 23-7 final score marks a clear victory for the Orca in this elimination game to claim the World Championship.
