February 15

6:30 game: Jammers 3, Slaminators 8

The Jammers couldn’t get un-jammed and were slammed, bammed, and canned in an overpowering offensive display by the Slaminators. The victorious team was led by the infamous scoring Jackson boys (Josh Biles, Michael Glidewell, Miles Coan, Rafferdy Coleman) along with stellar defensive play by Rami El-Jourbagy and Roderick Carter in the box.

The Jammers that contributed to their cause were Chris Airington, Craig Barabas and Tim Coffey.

7:50 game: Shredders 7, Atomics 9

The Shredders and Atomics both collided with each other in a most outstanding clash of futbol firepower. The Shredders dominated most of the competition only to have the Atomics mount a blistering comeback late in the game.

The Atomics that provided the most offensive firepower were Samual Alcecon, Rafael Rojas, Edwardo Gonzales and Jason “El Torch” Aldridge with a wall of death defense provided by Chris Anderson.

Although they lost in the end, the unbowed Shredders again were led by Gerson Rodriguez, Rachel and Mitchell Bishop and Robert Jordan. Betty Jean Jordan repeatedly repelled numerous attempts at goal and Freddie Ali again displayed a steel curtain defense in the goal box.
