Finish: tie for 3rd, semis loss to Boston’s Ironside
after semis

This past weekend, for the 2nd time in Chain Lightning’s three-decade history, the team reached the semifinals of the sport’s biggest championship. Just as in 2006, we lost in the semis, though on the strength of its run, this year’s team can likely lay claim to being the best Chain team ever.

In Saturday morning’s quarterfinals, we romped 15-8 over Toronto’s Goat, gaining a measure of revenge for last year’s excruciating loss to them in the same game. Along the way, however, star big man Dylan Tunnell went down for the remainder of the competition with an extremely sprained ankle.

The semifinals loss (10-15) to Boston was a well-played and highly intense game, in which the Ironside players made just a couple less errors, versus extreme pressure from the Chain defense.

More details and memories of the individual games to come.
