Season 7 Week 2
Despite the nasty conditions, 19 dedicated dodgeballers bravely fought the elements tonight successfully arriving at Vincent Massey School to compete for the most coveted prize in all of COC sports, the Dodge Ball Cup and vie for the right to have their name forever engraved on the infamous, Dodge Ball Wall of Fame! Once everyone had settled in, we kicked things off with a brief celebration in recognition of Chris's 400th event with the COC, presenting him with a custom made milestone cowboy hat to mark the occasion. At the conclusion of the festivities participants gathered together with their fellow teammates to introduce themselves and come up with a team name. After a few minutes of bonding, team names were submitted and the quest for GOLD began with the first of 20 round robin match ups.
Each team played 10 times to determine their seeding for the playoffs. Appropriately enough, Snowballs lead the way with a 6-4 performance followed closely by both Going Green and Better Red Than Dead who shared identical 5-5 records. Last but not least Moneyball, the smallest team ever to compete in this event with just 4 members, finished at 4-6.
In the semi-finals, Going Green made quick work of Better Red Than Dead defeating them in 2 straight games to advance to the gold while top seeded Snowballs were upset by a feisty Moneyball squad 2-1.
In the medal round, both series required exciting tie breakers to determine a winner. The Snowballs managed to salvage a bronze with a 2-1 win over Better Red Than Dead while the little team that could completed their impressive playoff run from worst to first with a 2-1 victory over Going Green to capture the gold! Congratulations Moneyball on your well earned Dodge Ball Cup victory tonight!
