    The United States routed Canada 50–7 in the gold medal game of the 2011 IFAF Senior World Championship. The 20,000 fans in attendance at Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna, Austria, set a record for an IFAF Championship game. The game was never close, with Team USA leading 37–7 at halftime. Team USA dominated the rushing game, outgaining Canada 247-48, with four different players scoring touchdowns on the ground. While Henry Harris led the way for the Americans on the ground, with 114 yards on 15 carries and a TD, RB Nate Kmic was the only American to score two touchdowns on the day. Team USA quarterback Cody Hawkins was 13 of 21 for 161 yards and 2 TD passes. The U.S. defense recorded four sacks, and Jordan Lake caught two interceptions. One bright spot for team Canada was Shamawd Chambers, whose 7 receptions for 74 yards bested the Americans.
