Season 3 Week 03
After a 2 week break, play resumed tonight at Vincent Massey Junior High School as 32 energetic COC’ers gathered together for another round of fantastically fun COC dodge ball! The eager participants arrived with dreams of hoisting the most coveted prize in all of COC sports, the Dodge Ball Cup and having their name forever engraved on the infamous, Dodge Ball Wall of Fame! As usual, the group was randomly divided into 4 teams and each given the task of coming up with a name for themselves. After a few minutes of team bonding, the names were submitted and the quest for GOLD began with the first of 20 round robin games.
Tonight each team played 11 times instead of the usual 10 to determine their seeding for the playoffs. The games were filled with plenty of excitement and great plays as teams jockeyed for position throughout the 22 game round robin tournament. Red Rocket Socks finished 1st with an impressive 8-3 record while the Green Latterns were just a step behind at 7-4. The remaining two teams also finished neck and neck with 3rd place going to Blue Man Crew at 4-7 while Team Tammy struggled to earn just 3 victories in 11 tries.
In the semi-finals heavily favoured Red Rocket Socks received an early scare when they lost game 1 of their series to the lowly Team Tammy. Fortunately for Red, they recovered quickly winning the next 2 games to advance to the gold medal round. In other action the Green Latterns made short work of Blue Man Crew to also earn the right to fight for gold in the championship series.
In the medal round, Blue Man Crew and Team Tammy required a 3rd and deciding game to declare a winner and when the dust settled it was Team Tammy capturing the bronze! Finally, in gold medal action it was the Red Rocket Socks over the Green Latterns 2-0. Congratulations Red Rocket Socks on your Dodge Ball Cup victory tonight!
