An entire season all came down to one game this chilly February evening.  In a game that would prove whether or not your team was the “real deal” both teams entered tonight’s contest with one goal and that of course was to leave being named the 2010 Broomball Champion.  Entering tonight’s contest both teams went this entire season without tasting defeat once.  The road to the championship was not an easy one for either one of these teams, with both teams passing some great competition en route to this championship game.  The Pirate Sheep last season were known as The Abnormal Force and the season before that as The Pirate Sheep.  Regardless of name, the majority of the team has been playing together and was looking to repeat as champions.  Meanwhile, Ridikulus entered tonight’s game looking for their first-ever championship trophy.  With the stage set, both teams were set to battle for the 2010 Broomball Championship!

Coming off tough losses last night, both of these teams entered tonight’s contest with a hope of perhaps regaining some pride.   With both teams losing by about the same margin last night, everyone in attendance showed up to tonight’s game expecting to see a great game.  With both teams making it this far into the tournament, and not heading home with any championship hardware, this game would be for bragging rights.  However, heading into tonight’s game JAX was missing a few of their players due to injuries and personal reasons.  Many people were wondering how big of an effect this would have on tonight’s contest and to be truthful I was not quite sure myself.  Only time would tell to see if JAX could win minus these three important players.

The last two games had not been kind to Ridikilus, who had led the broomball power rankings for most of the year.

With both teams coming off impressive victories earlier tonight, both teams headed into their second game of the evening looking to win the Off-Campus championship.  The Pirate Sheep entered the game with a 10-0 defeat of Black Ice, while Caliente entered with a 13-0 victory over Brick House.  With both teams winning by such a large margin in their first games of the evening, many fans in attendance wondered how much was left in the gas tank for each of these teams.  Many people in attendance were wondering if conditioning would have a factor on the outcome.  Only time would tell, as both teams seemed extremely pumped up and ready to go in the pregame warm-up.

Unfortunately, this seems to happen every year. The winner of the women’s league has to play one of the off-campus contenders for a shot to play in the off-campus final. The important thing to note about this game was that both teams were good spirited and good natured about the contest. The thing you hate to see is teams get frustrated by the predicament that they are placed in, or a superior team pour on unnecessary goals.

After a seven overtime thriller of a game last night for Victorious Secret, it seemed like they were going to keep living up to their name in these playoffs no matter what it took. They seemed to be the Cinderella story out of the McNair league, but this game was different. They would have to take down what appeared to be the strongest on campus team all year in order to play in the off-campus final, which would have been played just a couple of hours after this game. They were almost able to pull it off too, by taking it to yet another overtime game.
