Scared Hitless until the bottom of the 7th
The co-rec final came down to the wire. Saved by the balls took an early 3 run lead in the top of the first inning that put Scared Hitless on their heels. After some great all-around play by Saved by the balls the score was 9-5 at the end of the 5th inning. In the bottom of the 6th inning a clutch hit by Andrew Barnard brought Scared Hitless back with the ball game tied at 9-9. Barnard followed up the clutch hit with a great pitching performance in the top of the 7th recording 3 straight outs. After a leadoff triple by Mike Husted in the bottom of the 7th, Saved by the balls intentionally walked seasoned veteran John Boyle to get to Andrew Cox. Cox showed a great eye and worked the count into his favor drawing a game winning walk and RBI to make Scared Hitless your 2012 co-rec softball champions.
Wet and Wild Water Polo
It's just another day in paradise at the RWC lap pool. This great innertube water polo tournament ended with a match-up between the always tough DPT team against the eventual champion Yahoo Wahoos. It was a battle of titans that started out back and forth. Unfortunately for DPT, Dave Galat's quest for a championship in one of his last events came to fruition. With a 10-5 final score, the Yahoo Wahoos took home the innertube water polo championship. Congratulations to all of the teams that came out for this great event. Thank you to the aquatics staff for being great hosts to the intramural sports water polo tournament.

Striking the competition down by 100 pins was Unbowlievable coming in first place with a total pin count of 2,229. Great teams made this event possible and congratulations to Seth Karbal, Alexandra Depaolo, Justin Mills and Gary Muzzonigro for winning the spring 2012 bowling tournament.

Team USA has nothing on our 3v3 Soccer Champs
If you did not come to the RWC Park and watch our 3 on 3 soccer tournament then you missed a goal-den opportunity. The temperature was just right as was the competition. We had a few tough semifinal matches between FSA United vs Cool Runnings and Joga Feito vs Muffin Stuffers. The men’s final game ended when Joga Feito outlasted a great effort by FSA United. On our women’s side of the bracket the Black Mambas had a great run against Nacho Cheese. After the Mambas beat Tigers and Nacho Cheese beat Down to Futebol, they turned their sights on each other. Unfortunately for Nacho Cheese it was Na-cho time to win the women’s division as the Black Mambas walked away with the championship.
