Flag football heated up during the second week of the intramural season. With the first week in the books, teams were able to get down to business.
PUC Gym Rats vs. Ballz Deep kicked off the week’s games.
When asked about strategies and some weaknesses of the team, Michael Childers of the PUC Gym Rats replied, “We have a good defense, and last week was our first time playing together as a team, so we just need more familiarity.”
The defense of the Gym Rats showed against Ballz Deep as they forced many incomplete passes. With their strong defense intact, the final score ended with PUC Gym Rats taking a win at 42-35.
Tension ran high as some trash talk was directed towards the PUC Gym Rats by two members from the 119 Boyz.
“We were just cheering for our friends and they got mad,” Michael Halajcsik of 119 Boyz said.
119 Boyz faced off against Showtime later in the night and dominated with a score of 49-17. Nov. 1 looks to be an interesting night when 119 Boyz face off against the PUC Gym Rats in what has now become an instant rivalry.
Other match-ups saw the Final Four (previously known as Fantasik 4) win against Team Name by a 63-28 margin.
Why So Serious scored a victory as well against Island Limin, 49-0.
The night was filled with total knock outs, showing some teams are starting to find their strengths and laying down some serious strategy.
The highlight of the night was the match between Captain Kurt and PUC Bears. Smart plays and quick moves scored Captain Kurt the victory in a 49-0 shutout. Ben Moul explained how the team was able to bounce back after their loss last week.
“We had some big plays, but made a lot of mistakes last week, so this week we decided to go big and cut out mistakes,” Moul said.
According to Moul, Captain Kurt checked up on the standings before the match and found PUC Bears lost last week. They hoped this meant they would have the opportunity to win, Moul said.
The team consists of engineering students. They admit their appearances may trick you, but these guys mean business.
“We’ll be here next week,” Moul said. “Serving up losses.”
