Whipsnakes Outlast Redwoods in OT, Flawless Run to Finals
Whipsnakes 13, Redwoods 12 – OT The Redwoods defense had a clear game plan: take Matt Rambo and Zed Williams out of the equation, and force the rest of the team to beat you. They ran this plan to perfection, as neither Rambo nor Williams recorded a single point in this game. The risk with […]

Atlas was committing turnovers left and right, while Archers was dunking all […]
PLL MVP Contenders Before Elimination Games
So ends the easy part. We’ve had a lot of fun in the past little-over-a-week, but with the knockout stage set to begin shortly, we’re about to say goodbye to three teams. Sadly, two more will fall 48 hours after that and one more after another 48 hours. The season only ends happily for one […]
