Pickup at Moses Brown at 6:00 PM 2) The schedule says we are at Wheeler the next 2 weeks. I am almost positive this is wrong and we will be at Brown the next 2 weeks. Assume that is so, unless you hear back from me. 3) Games on Monday July 31: Berry Red v. White - Moses Brown tennis courts Key Lime v. Black - Brown #1 Pine v. Gold - Brown #2 Denim v. Purple Brown #3 On to the action: Gold 17 Key Lime 11 Gold jumped out to a 9-4 lead at half and withstood a 2nd half Key Lime rally. both teams were short on numbers and Key Lime played savage 4-3, which Gold matched, until Captain Cogan showed up. Key Lime played hard but it was not enough to derail the Gold Express. Purple 17 Pine 11 No report WHITE 17 DENIM 10 (by Captain Chia of Denim) Youth was served yesterday as the speedy athletic team of White outran the Denim team. (DENIM has a crusty wiley veteran core of Toohey, Chia, Nathan (yes he is old), Sean F., Tim M. (he's getting older everyday, especially playing with this group). Denim put in a good battle in both halves thanks to the younger crew of Denim (Kali, Kaitlin, Ami, Cass, Erwin etc.) but White was able to effectively beat the Zone D. of Denim. White started the game with a quick 3-0 lead. Denim came up with the next point to stop the attack. Denim then kept tn even so that the half was at 9-6 with some great grabs from Eric K. and Scott W. The Dynamic Duo of John Larosa and Olivier kept Denim on their heels all night. While both teams played great D. and O.. A notable great grab by Peri K.urshan in the endzone for a score (was her head in or out?). Denim played well but was not able to pull ahead of White in the first game for Denim that wasn't played under Moonlight. Black 17 Berry Red 6 ? (by Captain Moses of Black) Black jumped out to an early lead with a couple of quick offensive strikes and zone D, reeling off 5 points before Red got on the board. The red O was very patient, though, and had a couple unlucky turnovers near the Black goalline. At half, Black had a comfortable lead, 9-2. The game, however, was far from over. Lead by strategy/flipping captain Pranay's halftime adjustments, Red came out fired up and tagged a stunned Black team for a couple of points. Was a subless Black running out of gas? Addie Egan decided that getting a sweet layout block was more important than a non-broken finger, and the score was 9-5 But it was not to be, as Black tightened their proverbial belts and fought back with some exciting throws and tight zone D. Dave Gondek and Hope Chik were unreal in the cup, each getting a couple of sweet, heads-up Ds that Black quickly converted into goals. When the dust had settled, the savage Black team had held off the Red Army, 17-6 (or something like that). STANDINGS: Gold 8-1 White 7-2 Purple 7-2 Denim 5-4 Black 4-5 Pine 3-6 Key lime 2-7 Berry red 0-9
