The Joust – Ultimate

DATE: 2023-01-13 AO: Joust Q: Spyglass, stonecold PAX: MARTA, yeti, mcgee, Spyglass, Schottzie, stonecold FNGs: None COUNT: 16
WARMUP: 16 or so PAX braved the frigid 50 degree weather in another epic installment of Frizz. Things started poorly from the get go.. teams were chosen from what I understand to be some sort of ticTak trend or dance. Apparently everyone is right handed and it was decided two wouldnt face the 14. Teams shouldn’t be chosen by jumping hither and dither.
THE THANG: ultimate edition But I digress, the game was a tight one from the beginning with yellow and pink trading points. Defenses were more stout than normal, with @brokenarrow providing constant pressure from the opening pull. The intensity was matched by @stonecold ‘s attempted layouts. Frustrations spilled over with fouls and strategic nudging (@smokey) throughout the marthon point spanning nearly 10 minutes and over a dozen changes in possession. @Marta opted to cherry pick and conserve his energy. Afterwards, @yeti, @spyglass, and pink company pulled away 7 to 9 with 5 minutes to go. Yellow buckled down and played a flawless five minutes with 3 quick but patient scores to prevail 10-9. Easily the best stretch for yellow after pinks pressure forced constant turnovers. No injuries and wonderful fellowship was had at STACKS afterwards.
MARY: none.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – B and R is moving to Ohio to take a new ministry position and to be close to family with the forthcoming child. – Blue Ridge Relay team is forming. We have a bounty of drivers but need runners. Give it a Goog and talk to @MARTA when interested. – F3 blood drive is coming March 3rd near Olde Providence Elementary. Look out for the official sign up forthcoming COT: Converged with bootcampers…
