PFOL 6 Playoffs - R1G3 Recap

Team 1 – 56

Team 2 - 51

Indianapolis – Karma was not on Team 2’s side on Monday. Team 2 learned on Thursday that Edmound Elzy, Jason Rost, Brian Stutzman and Tamba Samba would miss the series deciding Game 3 schedule for Friday. Team 2 decided to move the game to Monday, so that both teams would be at full strength.

“At the end of the day, I didn’t want there to be an asterisk next to our name on the trophy. We could have easily played the game as scheduled and we most likely would have won by at least 70 points, but that’s no fun”, said Alan Mowrey.

Edmound Elzy’s Team 1 held on to a 58-53 win and earned a trip to the PFOL Finals. Elzy was named defensive player of the week after he held Kevin Murray to a season low 14 points on 6-19 shooting.

Elzy’s team will face Eric Flatt’s Team 4, whom they have lost to twice this season.

“I’ll tell you this, Edmound’s team just beat the best team in the league. If he doesn’t win a championship now, he will never live to hear the end of it. All eyes are on him and him only”, said Scott Higginson who missed today’s game because he wanted to go to lunch instead.

After the game, when asked to comment on the enormous pressure facing him and his legacy, Edmound Elzy had only 2 words: “NO COMMENT”.

Andrew Boehner had a comment however: “Get me the ball, I need more shots”.

Team 2 played their second straight game without All-Star forward Vance Catlin.

“If we would have played them at full strength, I think it would have been a different outcome. I guess we will have to put an asterisk next to this series, said Alan Mowrey.

Rob Laycock’s only concern was the $70.00 he spent over the weekend on this pair of padded shorts. “I was planning on getting at least 3 games in with my new padded shorts”, said Laycock.

Team 4 - 51
