"I'm still in"
"I'm still in"
Comic Relief
There is no other way to put aside from pure comedy! Michael Cofield from Got Balls? provided that comedy for everyone to admire.
During a game, his team had 4 people on the court against one lonely Killa Bee. As The Killa Bee got hit for the final out, the whistle is blown to indicate the game is over. Out of nowhere, in flies in Michael with his arm raised holding a ball, while shouting "I'm still in!"
The look on his face was as if he badly wanted a cookie, but what he didn't realize is that his team won that game. It was one of those moments where there, you would have peed your pants.
Thanks for the comic relief and great times as Michael Cofield gets the Player of the Week award. Congratulations.

Dreams Do Come True
Dreams Do Come True
I wanna play!
Looking into the gym from the glass window, that is outside in the hallway, you can see Alex Zimmerman from Hertz Donut fidgeting with a huge grin on his face as to say, I wanna play!
Once he came into the gym, it was like he was a kid in a candy store. He was watching the games from outside looking in with great anticipation to get in there. Now that he got in, it was like his life long dream had been completed.
When Alex played his 1st game and had his hand on a ball, he was jumping up and down and didn't know what to do with it. He finally gathered his thoughts and played the sport that everyone loves so much, Dodgeball.
He ended the night with a great hit-to-out ratio of 12/2. I'm sure Alex had a great night's sleep, dreaming about dodgeball. Congratulations to Alex for getting the Player of the Week award.

Ninja Ball
Ninja Ball
Finding Yourself
John Grieser from Hertz Donut was MIA for the 1st part of the season. Turns out, he was out of the country. John went to South America to find his dodgeball mojo and when he came back this last Monday, he displayed what he found.
Hertz Donut played two great teams that proved to be a challenge. When John took the court, he started off slow letting the balls come to him. Once his blood circulated around his entire body, it was as if Godzilla was destroying Tokyo. John was on fire and there was no one to get in his way.
After the 1st game, he went up to the opposing team and gave them all hugs. He learned the international sign of respect in South America. Then in the 2nd game to end his night, it was him against 4. There was flashes of a ninja being born right before your eyes. He got 3 people out one by one. Then finally in the face-off he flipped a ball up by his feet to get a hold of it and hit the remaining player. A move that left you with the thought......"Did he just do that?"
An amazing play that will now be forever known as the Ninja Ball. For finding his mojo and having fun, we give John the Player of the Week award. Congratulations.

HAM Boppers
In the opening match between Hertz Donut and the HAM Boppers the Boppers fell 6-2 but the score wasn't indicative of the dodgeball action that took place. Each game ended with merely a few players left on the court and easily could of gone in the favor of either team. Determined to not leave the Friendly House with a W, the HAM Boppers' captain Liz Lewis, who shined in the first match, took her game to another level in their next match against the skilled Got Balls? Squad.
Lewis unloaded sneaky and deceptive ankle-biting shots and was catching balls like Jerry Rice game after game keeping the odds heavily in favor of the Boppers. The very vocal captain kept spirits high and the ego's in check as the Boppers nearly swept the Got Balls? team with a final score of 5-1.
Congratulations Liz you're a one hardcore dodgeballa and our UNDERDOG MONDAY NIGHT LEAGUE DODGEBALL PLAYER OF THE WEEK!

Rainbow Bright
Happy Player
She makes her presence known by wearing the high knee-multi-colored socks. Some call her Rainbow Bright. Others call her Sunshine because of her bright aura she displays. One thing is for sure, she comes out on Monday nights to have fun!
Crysie Stichler from Balls to the Wallz, holds the glue to the team. When it is game time, she assembles them together like Lyno assembles the Thundercats, with just one thunderous roar. When they come together you can see her warming up with some practice throws.
This week, Crysie added a new throw to her arsenal. She was practicing her cartwheel throws where she would do a cartwheel and pick up a ball at the same time and then throw it to get people out. She was doing this to warm up, but came game time, she didn't want to do it because she wanted to spare the other team. So instead, she got out every time, but not before making sure she caught a few balls first.
Crysie is a great player with a great personality and great sportsmanship. For that we give her the Player of the Week award. Congratulations!

Can't get him out that easy
You can't miss Nate on the court. He is the tallest dodgeball player on Monday nights. Because of his height, he intimidates the opposing teams. When he throws the ball, it is like a screaming bullet flying through the air to its target.
All night long, Nate was all over the court. He was dipping, diving and dodging. Once when he was the lone player standing on the court against 5 opposing players, he rolled on the ground only to get up and catch a ball. He turned his head and another ball came screeching towards him. With his cat-like reflexes, he caught that ball as well, creating a 3-4 turn around.
He created a scene from the movie Dodgeball....A True Underdog Story. Many people think he actually was the screen writer for the movie which is why he made that look easy. Others think it is plain luck. One thing is for sure, he gets the Player of the Week award. Congratulations

Nathan Adams
Got Balls?
Nate Adams of the Got Balls? Squad has got the game of Dodgeball down to a science. Through the course of a game, the Got Balls? Captain fires off just as many commands to his teammates as he does dodgeballs. Adams is always vocal spouting off strategy, keeping spirits high, and chucking deadly balls and not to mention the guy's all over the court. If there is a more mobile player in the league they've yet to make it known. In watching Nate, you'll see more traveling on the court than you would at a 3rd Grade Girls' basketball game. The three-year veteran is both lethal and stealthy and can pop up in any corner, nook, cranny, or area of the dodgeball arena.
Nate's dodgeball play implements the Five D's, if he isn't dodging, he's ducking, diving, dipping or...dodging.
Congrats to Nate Adams, our MONDAY NIGHT DODGEBALL PLAYER OF THE WEEK!
