Week 3 Wrap Up
We’re nearing the half way point of the season and the Krakens and Chèvres remain undefeated and look poised to take the top spots of their respective divisions.
The G.O.A.T.S. put up a much stronger showing this week, but the Krakens managed to get the win and sweep the season series 2-0, giving them a very strong position in the playoff picture. The turning point of the match was a late interception by Kenneth Boudreau with the G.O.A.T.S. on the door step for the game tying score, which swung the momentum heavily in the favour of the Krakens.
The Huskies picked up their first win of the season with new QB Raphael Levy at the helm, leaving the Amish Cyborgs as the only winless team in the league. The Huskies kicked things off with a 45 yard TD pass from Levy to Ryan Belam which seemed to put the Cyborgs on the back foot for the rest of the match. Belam capped things off with a hard run 6 yard TD reception to end any hope of a Cyborgs comeback.
The final match of the night had the Chèvres looking strong from the outset of their match against the Sooners 45, putting up 25 unanswered points before the 5 minute mark of the second half. The Sooners did make a game of it though, with future star Jose Luis Castro Jr showing his acceleration and speed to score a 7 yard rushing TD to break the shut out and ending the game with a 9 yard TD reception which say him slicing through three defenders for the score.
Every game this week was a close one as we see new teams and players learning the ropes and starting to come together to compete with the returning veteran squads. If this continues, the second half of the season should see a lot of thrillers!
Congrats to this week’s POTW Jie OuYang who had 100 receiving yards and 3 TDs!
