Sunday night intramural flag football began its fall season with a dominating game. Competing were The Recreators versus Those Guys; both teams were excited to be representing the Independent League (Co-Ed) for the first game of the season. In the first half, Those Guys came out strong tallying up 13 points, ending the game with a score of 27-0. Jeremy Loverde was a key to his team's success as he notched two touchdowns, adding two extra points. Matt Garcia and Vinny LoProto were two more players that added to the dominating victory over The Recreators.
The game was followed by a tough matchup between the Gules and The Young Guns. Each team inched their way to the final score of 20-13. The Young Gun's assistant captain is also Flag Football Supervisor Waleed Gabr. When asked what his feelings were toward this season he replied, "Last year we had a lot of competition but not great sportsmanship; this year I would love to have both. I want everyone that is playing the game to learn and teach themselves how to be better." The last game of the night was a fierce competition between 1868 and the Agents. With 10 minutes left in the second half, neither team had scored. Finally with time running out in the game, Mike Giardina pushed his team to a victory of 6-0. For the first night of Flag Football, it was a great beginning to the season. Each team came out with a competitive spirit and an overall "A" for sportsmanship.
Monday night flag football provided another tough couple of matchups between teams. There were two games Monday, Sept. 20. As shown by the score, this was another even battle between Franchise and 1868. The score was 12-6, leaving Franchise one touchdown behind. Kevin Tuohey scored all twelve for 1868, showing promise for their next few games. Squirrels verses Bone Squad were the next teams to battle it out on the field. Entering the second half with nothing to show, Bone Squad took advantage of the 0-0 score. With only one half to go, Bone Squad took the lead with Tim Berdan scoring the one and only touchdown of the game.
The badminton games began Monday night at 9 p.m. with Youngster versus Petty. Rumor has it the Badminton doubles team will be shelling out major competition this season with returning players Teve and T-Cup, as well as Joanie Loves Chachi. Newcomers Naddem & Firoz and RA will be competing against the more-experienced teams for the ultimate badminton champion. The badminton schedule is fairly light, playing Monday through Thursday 8 to 11 p.m.
