Another awesome weekend of ultimate is behind us now, with Ohio State (hey Cody) coming out on top as the Ohio Conference champions. There was some crazy action, and I mainly stayed around the Dayton teams, but there were some great surprises this weekend. Congratulations to everyone who is going to Regionals in two weeks.
Both days, Wright State put scares into teams ranked ahead of them. Airstrike lost to both Case Western and Cincinnati on universe point, indicating things that might be coming in a couple weeks in Toledo.
Both Dayton teams played similarly well, and matched up in bracket play at the end of Sunday and we say UD come away with the win. The wind was terrible on Sunday, and UD was fortunate to get some upwind breaks at the beginning of the game which quickly put Wright State in a hole they could never get out of.
I shouldn't forget to mention Cedarville, who was probably a bit disappointed to not win the Conference in DIII. They will get a chance at revenge and are looking primed to make a serious run at Nationals.
This weekend was also the beginning of the AUDL season. The Cincinnati Revolution took on the Madison Radicals, and played a hard fought game. Unfortunately, some unforced errors and bad decisions allowed Madison to go on a run that put them ahead for good during the second quarter. Our very own Jamie Horne and Chris Hoy did some good work as the announcers, and I’m looking forward to more of their work. This area of the Revolution experience is already much improved over last season. Get out there on Friday to support the Rev when they play Chicago!
Lastly, after being around all of the Enigma guys and potential 2014 Enigmen this weekend, we are incredibly excited to get the season started. If I can say anything about the upcoming summer, I can say it’s going to be a blast.
And remember, zero - zero.
