You Get What You Give (1998)

The second half started with a rematch of week one, against the first-place team in the league. Week one was a back-and-forth match that ended with a 10-8 win for The Ship, and this week we again traded blows with the Dart Vaders.

Just like week one, S501 started out with a 3-3 tie. Rich, Glenn and Rebecca all won (but got no AS points), while Roni, Andrew and Aaron lost (but scored 290 AS points between them).

Cricket started out rough, as Rich / Rebecca dropped both games, including a heartbreaker in game two. Glenn / Andrew worked a split in their games, but Roni / Aaron were swept, putting The Ship down 8-4.

Proving they could give as good as they get, Roni / Aaron went back out and won the first game of D501 with an almost flawless game. Rebecca / Glenn fell far behind (not even in with only 67 left for their opponents), but staged a comeback to make a game of it before dropping game two. In the last game, Andrew doubled in and out, carrying Rich to a victory, and the two wins in D501 gave The Ship a much needed 4 points.

So, we got what we gave in week one (a 10-8 loss), but we proved we can go toe-to-toe with anyone.

Props:
Andrew: Two big wins and 98 AS points. There's only two rules, and that's all...
Roni: Major trash talk, backed up by 312 AS points.
