Majestic Gazelles

First Place

Flag Football - Mondays (Late Spring '16) - Presented by Miller Lite

The "Majestic Gazelles" are our Monday Night Flag Football champions following a strong night in the playoffs. They entered the night as the third seed, but were seen as underachievers during the regular season. They got hot just in time for the playoffs though, and it paid off.

The first round of the playoffs started with the top team "West Coast Stoolies" taking a 24-6 win. The win showcased their suffocating defense which was able to keep yet another opponent's offense in check. Their defense was so good this season, they even picked up a couple of shutouts. No doubt they were looking to keep things rolling for the final.

The "Majestic Gazelles" played their first game of the night against #2 "Killer Beez", last season's champion. Earlier in the season the match-up between the two was hotly contested and went down to the wire. But, unlike their previous encounter, "Killer Beez" couldn't slow down the offense for "Majestic Gazelles" leading to a 33-26 win for the eventual champs.

Some say good offense beats good defense, and in this game that proved to be true. "Majestic Gazelles" came out firing on all cylinders and no matter what "West Coast Stoolies" did, they couldn't slow down the champions. They did pick up 27 points, but unfortunately for them that wasn't nearly enough to make up for the 47+ points their defense gave up.

Congrats to the "Majestic Gazelles" on a fantastic run to the championship, and we wish them good luck in the upcoming season on their title defense!
