GAME 1 v Cranes
Cranes are often passive animals, but when challenged they get aggressive and go on to the offense. During Week 5 of the prestigious Gainesville Ulty Summer League the Cranes embodied their animal to set a dangerous offense against the Tortoises. Their main offense proved to consist of the famous “Upline Bonanza” continuous cuts upline, obliterating any defenders that dared stand on their way. From the likes of Dheeraj, Will, Aymo and Nevin, the Crane handler core abused their speed to overwhelm the Tortoises. Combined with cutters like Annika and Rachel, and the expertise of Coach Ricky this team brought it on!
But the tortoises showed their impenetrable defense and counterattack with well placed pressure from Kiana and Kate. The tortoises also managed to exploit the Cranes offense with huck counterattacks as Dustin set up the Tortoises for multiple scores. Not only that but with the end of volleyball season the Tortoises showed up with an ace up their sleeve… The Commish! Pat showed up early and ready to get some stats on the board bringing some hype and the play of the game with a DISGUSTING deep ball defense.
With an intense game such as this, it was prone to be a little chirpy. Calls were made, players got owned by their coaches (Ricky gave Caio nightmares for the next three nights), but the Spirit of the Game showed through and some great Frisbee was played.
Final Score 8-5
Tortoise Victory!
GAME 2 v Manatees
The Manatees showed up ready to play but with only 5 players. Cmon Manatees… But with some sideline help from Harin and Max they managed to roster 7 for a good game of Ulty. The game was laid back and fun, giving the Tortoises a much needed rest after the game with the Cranes.
Final Score FORFEIT
Turtle Victory!
Can’t say I didn’t warn you, the turtles are crawling for that trophy…
