CONGRATS TO TEAM STUDS!

Team Studs def. Team Draino (21-9, 21-15, 7-15)

Team Speed def. Team Vets (21-10, 21-19, 21-18)

“We just do what we do and be who we be!” -Len Segal

“Thanks for setting this up. Good time.” -Chris Benne

“The tournament was a great idea to kick up the intensity-thanks for all the organizing! Team Draino never really recovered from losing Brett to work, and Ross never was the same after OPP took him out-I don't think we have actually spotted Ross since that incident. Congrats to the Studs, they rolled over us today.” -Pete Sherman

““I thought the Wednesday morning tournament went really well. The teams were divided evenly which created some great games. I’m pretty sure everyone finishing 3-3 proves my point. There were plenty of funny moments (Randy faking a pass over my head to get an easy lay-up, Drew banking a 3 from deep), as well as some painful moments (OPP dislocating a finger, Linsey throwing elbows), and who can forget the arguments and fights. In the end, it was fun and everyone got along………..for the most part. The only good part of the year coming to an end is, no more Stan Kaniecki emails.” -The Young One, Johnny Dickshot, Shwab (Am I forgetting any Nicknames?)

“This whole tournament started out as a great idea to step up the level of competition. To see the guys (and gal) that you have played with for years get up and in your face was something of a spectacle. I really appreciate the fact that I survived the tourney without donating any blood.

Next time I'll have Alex play WITH my team instead of against my team.

All in all a great time! Looking forward to the next round.” -Dan Engen

“I played like an NIT finalist.” -Greg Ulland

Championship Wednesday match-ups!

There has been some talk about playing the #1 seed v. #4 and #2 v. #3. I am game to do that NEXT TIME, however, I would like to stick with the original rules that were stated BEFORE we started just to stay consistent! Sounds like a better idea for next time!

I calculated the game and series records yesterday. I would say we had some pretty evenly matched teams based on the fact that we ALL ended up with a series record of 3-3. Therefore, I had to go right to the head to head game records.

Team Speed: Did not win any of the head to head game records (all were 2-4). Therefore, they ended up with the #4 seed.

Team Cagey Vets: Tied head to head with Draino (3-3), but lost to Studs (2-4). They end up with the #3 seed.

Team Draino: Tied with both the Vets and Studs. HOWEVER, they have the advantage over the Vets because the next thing we look to is the OVERALL game record. Draino ended up 10-8 overall, and the Vets were 9-9.

Team Studs: Tied with Draino (3-3) and had the advantage over the Vets (4-2). Furthermore, they ended up with the best overall game record (11-7) and nab the #1 seed!

According to my calculations, these are the match-ups for next Wednesday, Championship Wednesday!

Court #1: Team Studs (home) v. Draino (away)
Court #2: Team Vets (home) v. Team Speed (away)

Results:

Team Speed defeated Team Cagey Vets 2-1 (21-19, 21-20, 19-21)

Team Draino defeated Team Studs 2-1 (19-21, 21-16, 21-15)

Team Draino: “The steam was taken out of the games before we started! Get out of bed Team Studs!!” -Chris Simon

Team Studs: “Thank you Team Draino for allowing Ralph to play with us. Little did we know that he would hit the game winner that will most likely put us into the Championship Game. Both teams played really well and for once there was no fighting. Draino played well and looking forward to a rematch in the Championship Game.” -Mark Porter

Team Speed: “Team Speed went into today's matchup with nothing to lose... Nothing... We can out victorious because of the hard work and dedication from Chris, Kris and Dave. Each of my teammates contributed to our victory this morning and I am so proud of each of them. Way to go Team Speed!

Oh, and we're glad no blood was drawn by Lins... Especially me since we were matched up.” -Dan Engen

Team Cagey Vets: “Dattilo’s threes, Ulland’s clutch shots, and big Mike’s solid post play were not enough this morning for the Cagey Vets. Dan Engen was “the difference maker” this morning, he answered every call. “ -Randy Lothrop

Post-game quotes:

Team Vets: “Scott was automatic today! Team Studs threw everything at him and he still didn't miss!!” - Mike Havrilla

Team Studs: “The cagey vets came into this morning with a solid game plan. And after a slow start, they did not waver from that game plan, I guess why they got that name.” - Tom McKelvey

Team Draino: “Every game was close, and each team scored in spurts. Team Draino got a couple of key steals courtesy of Ross, and we relied heavily on Big Country to win today. 4 on 4 on the big court-I'm ready for a nap!” - Pete Sherman

Post-game comments:

Team Vets: “Ulland – nuff said.” - Scott Dattilo

Team Draino: "After winning our first match, we have lost 3 in a row. We are very competitive but are having a difficult time closing out games. We almost blew our lone winning game today leading 20-10. We will turn things around. If not, we will have a good pick in next year's draft." - Steve Pietrek

Team Studs: “I was unaware, but evidently my team wanted to work on their times tables. 3 times 7 equals 21. I did quite well at the zero times table. 5 attempts X 0 equals 0.” - Drew Ostendorf

Team Speed: “I've never seen a team win a game on 7 3s...until today...also our team shooting percentage was about 20percent. They played well. We will have to regroup quickly for next weeks game. Also after moving some of the ap tables I decided to stay and take it. In honor of team studs i just answered" 3" for all of the questions..think I might have done pretty well.” - David Moss
