Winning: Day 2

Written & Edited by the Bello

Day two started with Ghetto enjoying a first round bye, which allowed Ghetto to play its first match at the luxurious 10:45 time slot. Ghetto Force competed in Day Two like Kim Jong Il plays a round of golf...winning by a ridiculous margins.

Miami: 15-9

Ghetto's first match of the day would be against rival Miami. As a result of Xavier withdrawing one of its two teams from tournament play on the second day, forcing Miami to split its squad into two teams in order to maintain the tournament schedule. Despite this blow to Miami's team the show must go on , Ghetto set the tone early getting 2 break points thanks to a well timed Ghetto offense. Miami answered back by capitalizing on offense for two points. However despite Miami's efforts Ghetto Force easily took half. During the second half Ghetto lost a little intensity and focus resulting in trading points and allowing Miami to get a couple break points. Luckily Miami picked a fight with a team full of warlocks and Ghetto was able to refocus and reclaim domination of the disc ending the game 15-9.

Xavier Alumni: 15-9

With the Miami team disposed of, Ghetto had its sights on the next opponent...an Alumni team. While facing an Alumni team in the semi's may seem like a blessing, Ghetto knew that this bread of team especially a team composed of recently graduated Xavier all-star Alumni may have the potential to be a serious threat. Alumni teams are known to be wild beasts as they bate throws with a poaching defense and are known to have an arsenal of perfect cross field hammers and pinpoint throws. However Alumni teams lack one thing that Ghetto excels and that is conditioning. Ghetto came out hard and strong against the Xavier Alumni setting the tone that Ghetto would not be an easily fooled team sending the message loud and clear to the Alumni that "you cant process me with a normal brain". The Force was able to get a handful of breaks in the first half and allowed for a point cushion that was more a psychological weapon then a dictation of how the game was going. Ghetto was able to contain the speed


Ohio Northern University: 15-0

The third game was a classic example of simple logic--Ohio Northern University multiplied by the power of nOOb is less than Ghetto Force A or B, Having just played a close but well controlled game against Xavier Alumni, Ghetto was rested and energized for the Championship match that had a free tournament bid next year and $200. However Ohio Northern (Darkside) was coming off a close fought game, that came down to universe point against University of Cincinnati, resulting in an exhausted Darkside. Ghetto allowed ONU to catch its breath, starting the game 15 min later than the tournament schedule. From the first offensive possession, ONU threw its infamous vertical offense but Dayton's defensive play sent the message loud and clear to "park your nonsense". Simply by not allowing the handler break, the ONU stack was powerless against tight marks that were put on by the Ghetto defense. After several early unanswered breaks ONU's play continued to spiral down, Darkside players began bickering and making silly desperation cross field hammers that only an Alumni team might have the chance to pull off. Ghetto had no problem taking half with still ONU not coming close to scoring. The second half was a rookie spotlight game. Players like Troy, Token, Marc, Josh and Peaches each made huge impacts on the game. Strong defensive efforts like Token d-ing a very dangerous endzone throw, ensured that Ghetto stonewalled ONU. Ghetto easily reach 15 points while OU scored a very worthy 0 points.


Ghetto never allowed a team to score more than 9 points throughout the entire weekend. Leaving $200 richer Ghetto dominated Boogie Nights like Charlie Sheen dominates horrible sitcoms, Ghetto now has its sights set on the Chicago Invite. Follow the scores here.
