In our final night of Summer 2025 regular season games, teams met opponents for only the second time of the season due to earlier rainouts. In all three cases, the winning team swept the season series at 2-0.

Black Sheep held off a furious second half comeback by bREaD. Black got the win 13-10. The highlight play of the game for bREaD was Jimi's full field huck to a sprinting MV for a score between Tom and Blake narrowly missing the D.  Perfect cut, throw and catch deep in the away corner of the end zone.

In prime time, Beets and Blue's Clues played a very close game. Blue's Clues had a chance to pull even and force U-point at hard cap, but Beets managed to score the hold to win 14-12.

In the late game, White took half over Lean Green Bean Machine 8-4. Green came on strong in the second half to cut the White lead to 8-6. White took it from there and cruised to a 15-8 victory. With the loss, Green finished the regular season 0-15 to shoot the moon, earning 26 points and winning the league!! Oh, wait, we are not playing Hearts. 

Monday's results finalized the playoff seeds:

1. Black Sheep - earn a first round bye this Thursday

2. White - also earn a first round bye

3. Purple 

4. Blue's Clues - earn the 4 seed by tie break winning the season series vs bREaD 2-1

5. bREaD

6. Lean Green Bean Machine

Thursday's playoff matchups are Beets vs Lean Green Bean Machine at 7PM, followed by Blue's Clues vs bREaD at 8:15PM.

White will face the highest advancing seed at 7PM on Monday, followed by Black facing the lower advancing seed at 8:15PM. 

Note - the league would love to have a DoW showcase game if there is enough interest to play in it - DoMs as spectators only. I have proposed that an inaugural DoW Showcase could occur after the semifinals on Monday. If that happens, those Monday semifinal games would start at 6PM and 7:15, and the showcase would be at 8:30. I'm flexible about scheduling the DoW showcase, though. We could even have it after the finals and all star game, but probably not on the same night.

How can you vote about the DoW showcase, summer awards, and give feedback about the league in general? Complete our summer survey! Responses are due by August 11th.
