Re: No Lifter = No Playoffs

Indeed.
Several matches were 0-0 or low ties at Traverse City, MI, and that was only because of the balls. On other matches that had hangers, they made all the difference between a tie or loss and a win. On at least one occasion, the hangers were the only ones that scored anything.
If my team's lifter was functioning properly during the first few matches, we would have been in the highter standings all the time. But on the second day, we managed to jump from 38th of 38 to 18th.
Just got to get it right the FIRST time!
