Re: pic: The Ultimate Stack

This is the match our scouts described as:
"John and Paul's ego trip" it is also known as "The Pissing Contest".

This was 229's first qualification match of the day, and the general strategy was to play "volume offense" while our partners worked on the other goals.

This was 217's first qualification match of the day, and the general strategy was to play "volume offense" while their partners worked on the other goals.

The result was what you see here.
The "twins" faced off. The chickens started off blue, we countered with a double stack of red, then it went 1 for 1 from there.
9 were stacked, #10 and #11 were in the air above, and #9 ended up getting knocked off.


Not a bad way to start off the regional.
The crowd loved it, and so did we.
John

PS - 217 and 229 Dueled 3 times at Finger Lakes. All were spectacular matches. I hope video gets up eventually.
