It was a dark and stormy night, but that didn’t stop the Sarnia Ultimate League from some wet and wild game action.  The two remaining undefeated teams in the league (including pre-season) clashed at Canatara Thursday night.  The Banana Hammocks took advantage of a shorthanded Suspects team in the first half, quickly running up an 8-1 lead.  The Hammocks continued their strong play in the second half utilizing their Split and Peel offence.  Kartar Kalsi strung together some strong plays to help his team to the 15-5 win.

The Megalomaniacs and the Bulldogs both debuted their new team shirts just in time for a fast paced match.  After losing the first point mere seconds into the game, the Megalos caught wind and sent the game to 8-2 half time break.  Brian “Charchy” Chartrand brought heart and hussle to the Bulldog’s game, but they just couldn’t overcome the defensive zone.  Rebecca Fradette was the receiver of the night for the Megalos as they marched to a 15-5 victory.

Red Army had no luck as they played a man down against the Huckstables.  They never gave up despite having no subs, and scored 5 points in a 15-5 loss.  Allason Stewart stepped up her handling game for the Huckstables in the win.

Hungate’s Mom and Delusions of Grandeur played a back and forth first half having only one point separating them.  But a strong second half by Hungate's Mom limited their opponents to only 2 further points.  Standout play by Lindsay Langstaff and Adam Wettges with multiple diving catches gave Hungate’s Mom a 15-9 triumph.
