Little Vikings Make Big Statement With Conference Championship Win

For a group of seventh grade boys from Parsippany, this was a football season to remember.

The Little Vikings Junior Varsity football team, which blazed through the regular season and amassed eight wins to just one loss, brought its talents into the National Conference Championship game against the Long Valley Raiders.

The game, held at the neutral Freedom Field in Randolph, was suspenseful until the waning seconds, but saw the Little Vikings complete their conquest by a score of 16-8 on Saturday.

The youth football program acts as a feeder program for the Parsippany Hills High School football team, which has seen its fair share of success in recent years and hopes to avenge a 2013 title game loss in this year’s playoffs, which begin on Friday.
