Fall 2023 Playoffs, Thursday, October 26, 2023

Fall playoffs began with a great game between Moldy Bats and Zombeeeees. The two teams traded points until Bees tied the score at 7-7 and pulled to Bats for the point to decide the first half. Bees made a great defensive play on Bats' first throw, and converted a quick score to break and take half 8-7. Bats were not fazed. They used echo location to stay close. At one point a throw out of bounds caused Tom Banney to bid from midfield, much to the enjoyment of the sideline. Bees built a two point lead. Bats narrowed it to one. It was nearly hard cap with the score at 11-10 Bees. Bats had a chance to tie and force U-point, but ultimately it was Bees that got a hold. As hard cap arrived, Bees scored a final point to get the win, 13-10, but the game was so close it could have gone the other way.

The late game started close too, but the Skellies took half up two breaks. shRED got a break to start the second half, but they couldn't complete the comeback. Skellies handlers dominated the game with chilly break throws and upline cuts. The final was 15-9 Spooky Scary Skeletons.

Both the top seeds held. Bats and shRED will meet in the early game on Monday, with the loser eliminated from championship contention. Zombeeees and Skellies will meet in the late game, with the winner earning a bye on Thursday when the loser will play the winner of the Bats-shRED game.Â
