Round 1:
White over Green 12-5
White starts the game on fire with a big grab from Ryan who flipped it to 11-year-old Damien who immediately has a big spike post-score. Green came out shooting big throws, but don’t connect on enough of them to come back from an early 6-2 deficit.
Orange over Charcoal 10-7
Charcoal starts the game off with countless handler miscues. Orange on the other hand had their deep game on lock. Jaime and Dan shot plenty off shots to their tall athletic cutters like Sam, Alan, and Shawna. They get off to a 7-3 half time lead and cruise in the second half
Red over Blue 9-6
Valiant from blue as they were missing both captains and other star players. Mary’s deep cuts, Christophe’s hucks, and their zone D weren’t quite enough as they lose a tight one
Round 2:
White over Blue 11-7
Charcoal over red 9-7
Green over Orange 10-9
Offensive player of the week:
Mary from Blue team. In a Dante-esque performance, she scores many goals in two close losses. She was unstoppable in the deep space, generating open deep cuts on almost every point. Blue will be dangerous if their other deep cutters come back next week
Defensive player of the week:
Andy from Charcoal. Always the gentleman, this man would apologize before laying out and getting great Ds in the end zone over and over. He had 3-4 against orange and another few against red.
Rookie of the week:
Damien from White. This 11-year-old set a league record as the youngest player to score a goal in league history. He then soon became the youngest to score multiple goals. He clearly came prepared breaking out the spike celebration, fake-spike, and drive the bus. Who knows what he will bring next week after his scores
Next week’s game of the week: Green vs Charcoal
This will be the CNU game, as both teams feature multiple players and coaches from the school. Both teams played Orange tight, so it should be a tight game, too
