Swille in the Ville

This weekend Enigma not only showed up to Swill in the Ville, hosted by LouEvil; but we took away two items. One: a tie for a third place finish overall at the tournament. Two: a first place showing at the tournament party. How did this happen you ask? Well the voice of the generation (Phil for those of you less familiar) posed a simple question to Fudge.

Phil: "Do we win the party if it means a possible poor morning showing?" [more or less direct quote]
Fudge: *Raises Beer Mug*
Team: "CHEEEERS!"

And the party was as good as won. If you care for more intimate details I would highly recommend asking Michael about his facebook wall or Captain Crunch about his female literal enigma (a puzzling or inexplicable occurrence or situation).

W 13 vs. Poppycock Love 8

W 13 vs. Midnight Meat Train B 7

W 10 vs. Voodoo (SO) 8

W 12 vs. Black Flag 2

W 15 vs. Beachfront Property 11

L 5 vs. 15 Dire Wolf

We brought 21 players to Swille in the Ville, and are still getting acclimated O and D lines, but it is working wonders! We went 4-0 day 1 which set us up to play Beachfront Property first game on day 2. After a 4-12 loss to Beachfront Property at Scinny just weeks ago, Enigma came out prepared with a commanding offense and a defense poised for breaks, one of which was a near callahan from your favorite Captain Crunch.

Players of Enigma, keep one word in mind: Sectionals. We have 7 weeks until Sectionals. We have 7 weeks until one tournament that dictates our entire season. I just wrapped up a 5 mile run. I'm sure Mike pumped iron at the gym. I know Phil destroyed the rule book after this weekend. What did you do today?

First Practice

It has been brought to my attention that the blog hasn't been updated much in the recent past, so hopefully this brief post will help. Enigma's 4th season has been through the pickup portion, and today was the first day of practice. As far as numbers go, we were just under 20 guys ranging from 4th year Enigma Veterans to Rookies.

Enigma prides themselves both on competitive sport as well as spirit of the game, and this mind set will be carried on through the 2011 club season. In addition to competing in the Club Series, Enigma is looking to grow the sport of Ultimate in the premier location of Dayton, OH. Surrounded by Cincinnati and Columbus, Dayton natives are forced to travel for summer leagues, high schoolers have no elders to look up to, and ultimate is really only focused in on at the College Level. This year, Enigma will be a competitive team, that turns no one away if the desire and passion to play ultimate is there.

Here is the tournament schedule, I was going to write something about smart cutting and field vision, but I found it's slightly complicated when all I want to do is sleep. I'll have to return to that...
