Regular Season Wrap-up

The Suspects underlined their status as championship favourites this week with a 15-2 dismantling of Hungate’s Mom.   The Hungate’s team was missing a few key players for this final regular season match.  The Suspects’ Eric “tootin” Hawryluk played a high energy game on defence for the winning side.   Suspects finish the regular season heads and shoulders above the competition with 11 wins, 2 loses, and a point differential of +79. 

Red Army saved their best for last in their break through game against Pants Party.  The entire team was on form in their first (non-default) win of the season.   Red Army’s Evan Walsh opened the game with a D-Block 10 feet from the end zone leading to a quick point.  The game remained close all the way to a 13-11 advantage for Pants Party.  Red Army finished the game strong with four straight points.  Pants Party Adrianne Sutherland and Nicole Duncan played very well without any subs, not only this game, but for the past three weeks.

The Huckstables were trying to grab onto the third seed as they took on the Bulldogs.  The wind played in their favour as it forced a lot of turnovers from the Bulldogs’ offence.  A lack of subs also hindered the Bulldogs later in the game, as the Huckstables took the match 15-9.

The Megalomaniacs were also looking for third place against the Banana Hammocks.   As has been the case for the last two years, the Bananas struggled against the defensive zone of the Megalos.  At a score of 8-3 Megalos, the Bananas were looking to score point 4 when the receiver – Lauren Kraemer – went down with a bad foot injury.  This left the Bananas shorthanded as they had no female subs from the start, and the game was called at 8-3.

Saturday’s playoff tournament will consist of the following quarter final match-ups.

(1) Suspects will play an exhibition game against the Bulldogs as they cannot field a proper team.  Suspects receive a bye into the semis.
