March Madness has fully taken over Cooper Athletic Center this week! Mandi Smith's team won the Women's Division by a margin of one point on Tuesday evening against The Under G's.
Teams competed with intensity to make it into the field of six for the tournament. Wednesday night saw Ramrod's first place strong-hold be snatched away by America's Most Wanted, and their 43 point defeat of Joe Alexander's team. Both Ramrod and America's Most Wanted earned first round byes in the tournament. That left four teams playing on Thursday evening for a chance to advance. Long Range Bombers and Tim Conner's team went back and forth for 25 minutes of play. The Long Range Bombers pulled ahead with 3 minutes in the game to take the lead, mainly off the hot shooting of Denny Zimmerman. The second game of the night was also a close one between the Floyd HallStars and the Uptowners. With a minute and a half remaining, the quick thinking of Floyd team captain Chaz Elrod and his consistency from behind the arc put his team ahead and into the second round of the tournament.
Games will resume on Tuesday evening in Cooper with America's Most Wanted playing the Long Range Bombers at 7pm. Ramrod will hope to defend their 2008 championship title against the Floyd HallStars at 8pm. Wednesday evening at 8pm come cheer on the final two teams standing, as Intramurals takes over Randy Lamber Court in Cooper. You won't want to miss it!
