Season 3 Week 09
Round 9 of COC Dodge Ball drew a standing room only crowd of 44 eager participants who crammed into Vincent Massey Junior High School for the final time this year. Each one hoping for a chance to fulfill a life long dream 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 customary, participants received their team assignment based on the playing card they randomly selected from the deck. Once everyone had checked in, team members gathered together to introduce themselves and come up with a team name for the tournament. After a few minutes of team bonding, the names were submitted and the quest for GOLD began with the first of 22 round robin match ups.
Each team played 11 times to determine their seeding for the playoffs. The games were filled with plenty of excitement and great plays as teams jockeyed for position throughout. When all was said and done, Golden Eye proved to be the team to beat after earning an impressive 7-3-1 record. The rest of the pack was not far behind as the Red Light District finished at 5-5-1, Labatt Blue 5-6-0 and finally Green Go’s at 4-7-0.
The semi-finals belonged to the underdogs as 3rd place Labatt Blue made short work of the Red Light District defeating them in 2 straight games to advance to the gold while 4th place Green Go’s knocked off the tournament favourite Golden Eye's with a dramatic 2-1 series victory.
In the medal round, the Red Light District continued their winless ways as they were swept again, this time by a more determined Golden Eye squad. In other action, the Green Go’s completed their Cinderella story comeback with a convincing 2-0 series sweep over a tough Labatt Blue team. Congratulations Green Go’s on your well earned Dodge Ball Cup victory tonight!
