( Chalfont St. Giles, 12th April 2008 ) No less than twelve Hurricanes players were selected to represent Team South in the BUAFL inaugural MVP game. Hurricanes players made-up one in four of the squad which was selected from over one thousand players representing the twenty-one teams of the BUAFL Southern Conference. This was the highest number representing any single team.

The game itself was dominated by defense, which is often the case given the short amount of time to prepare offenses for these events. The North took the lead in the second quarter on a long catch and run. But just before half-time, Fab Garguilo sacked Team North's QB on their 5 yard line forcing a fumble which was recovered by the South. Issam Affoury charged into the endzone for South's TD and James Hardy added the extra point kick. Team North scored again in the fourth quarter to take the score to 13-7. With time running-out, the South staged their best drive of the day to get close to the goal line. But a pick-off in the endzone saw the North hold on to clinch the game.
