Winning Streak Still Alive


Taking advantage of what essentially became 2 bye weeks in a row, What?! put in extra work in the weight room in an attempt to look as hot as the man depicted above, and hoped that an additional byproduct of that extra work would be more wins.

The day started out in a unusual way, as the team played with their full compliment of girls and only 4 guys. Confused by this offense alignment that they've never witnessed before, What?!'s opponent allowed Felix, who played Kirk Gibson style with one functioning knee, to drive down the field and score a TD. Equally confused by their own formation and personnel out on the field, What?!'s defense proceeded to give up two touchdowns while Felix was sacked for a safety for the billionth time in his Zog QB career. At this pivotal moment, help arrived in the form of Brad and Jamie as they were finally able to make it to the field. Their arrival helped steady the defense and give the offense more bite, leading to a score from Jamie to Eric A. Right before the half, Bekim and Lance navigated their way to the field from the distant land of Manhattan as well.

Spurred by the reinforcements, What?! played the 2nd with fire and intensity unmatched by their opponent. Save a garbage time score, the defense stifled their opponents, taking away all options in the passing game while Janine padded her season sack totals. On offense, Jamie ran a steady offense while the girls chipped in with a perfect day at QB, including a TD toss from Janine to Lance. Brad, Ronny, and Eric A paced the team with catches while Alison caught a touchdown and the team converted a season high 3 extra points.

With this effort, What?! closed their 3rd consecutive regular season with only 1 loss, and are well situated for another playoff run this Sunday.

PLAY OF THE GAME: Janine catching Jamie's rocket throw
PLAYER OF THE GAME: Jamie for stepping in and doing a great job at QB and Janine for her all around performance.
