I don't think the outcome of the division finals had anything to do with the fact that 1918 fell. They did a lot of work to get it back to being functional and it climbed in the last match. We probably would not have knocked them off if we were on opposite corners, but I don't think it changed any results.

The outcome of the Curie finals was decided when we were not able to get a clear full court shot in either F2 or F3. In F2 we completely fell apart trying to get anything done. In F3, 862 was holding their ground so well that we had to switch to cycling....at that point we were pretty much done for. Our entire strategy depended on the FCS keeping it close enough for the climbs to matter. It almost worked...

I'm sure there were more creative strategies that could have been employed given the outcome, but I haven't really explored it greatly.
