Over at hope High, Purple (#2) took on Straw (#1) in a repeat of last Monday's game in which Straw gave a scare to Purple before succumbing. Unfortunately for Straw, their illustrious leader Dave Toohey was unable to play because of a bad back. Purple had their full contingent of players last night and were able to easily defeat Straw 17-8. On the lacrosse field, White, the #5 seed took on Blue the #4 seed. Blue had defeated White during the season but that was without Captain Cogan and before the Santa Cruz ringers joined the team. Despite a valiant effort by Blue, White had too many weapons at their disposal and defeated Blue by about 4 or 5 points. On the soccer field, Grey the #3 seed took on Black the #6 seed in a repeat of last Wednesday's game. That game was pretty ugly and from what I saw of last night's action, this game was not much different. Lots of defense and plenty of turnovers by both sides. Black scored to make the game 12-11. It started getting dark making it difficult to see the disc. Grey was able to pull out a 14-11 victory. Over on the baseball field, Green the #7 seed took on Red the #2 seed. Red was short on players because of injuries and Green for most of the game was able to take advantage. Green jumped out to an 8-3 lead when red decided to pump up their defense. Green was still winning 11-9. Red went on a run though and won the game going away 14-11 I think. This Wednesday will be the semifinals. Purple v. White (soccer field) Red v. Gray (baseball diamond) By having both games next to each other, spectators can watch both games at the same time. Both games should be hotly contested. ALSO, GAMES MUST START BY 6:30 PM. Purple's game last night started right at 6:30 and we were done by 8:00. The other games did not start until much later and had to capped because of darkness. Players, please come a bit earlier so we can get going. Playing in the dark is not my idea of fun. There will be pickup on wednesday for those people whose team was eliminated. This Monday August 3rd will be the Finals. After the game, we will be mosying over to Ben and Pranay's house for a BIG party. They live literally around the corner from the fields on Brook Street across from Pembroke Field. We will have refreshments (including beer for those 21 +) as well as a barbecue for everybody. We will also have our awards cermony which nicely segues into my nice topic....
