Campus Recreation Report: co-rec, competitive softball leagues finish

Champions have been crowned in the co-rec and men’s competitive softball leagues on campus.

 On Sunday, the co-rec bracket was set to play. Seeded first overall, Car Ramrod took on ChurchGroup in the first playoff game of the day.  In the end, Car Ramrod had an impressive game, winning 16-3 to move on to the finals.  

In other parts of the bracket, Cleats and Cleavage fought Brokebat Mountain for the final spot in the championship game.  Cleats and Cleavage secured their spot in the championship game, beating Brokebat Mountain 10-3.

In the championship game, Car Ramrod looked to complete the season undefeated, as Cleats and Cleavage looked to redeem themselves since their only loss of the season to Car Ramrod.

The entire game went back and forth with runs, hits and good defense, but  in the last inning Car Ramrod was ahead by four runs.  Cleats and Cleavage were not backing down. They rallied back to within one. With the bases loaded and two outs, Car Ramrod made a great play to get the third out, winning the game 11-10 and taking home the championship T-shirt.  

“It felt great to win the championship with my teammates,” Michael Drummond of Team Car Ramrod said. “It was a great team effort against a very good team and we were fortunate enough to come out with the win.”

In men’s competitive softball playoff action, the No.1 seed, Average Joes, battled the No.4 seed, Los Angeles Riots, for the chance to advance to the championship game.  In the end, the Los Angeles Riots were too powerful for the Average Joes and took home the win 8-4.  

Going into the championship game, it was Los Angeles Riots versus The Bueller Boys.

 It was a hard fought game with The Bueller Boys starting out strong taking the lead 3-0 in the first inning.  The Los Angeles Riots were not giving up and they batted in several runs, taking the lead in the middle of the third inning.

 By the last inning though the Bueller Boys were able to tie it up and take the game into extra innings. In the end, the Los Angeles Riots took home the win and the championship T-shirt, by a score of 13-10.
