Still Alive!

The rain and cold weather this past Sunday failed to deter What?! from showing up at the field, 5, and later 7, members of the team at least.

Even though they were outnumbered, What?!'s defense was able to stuff their opponent's opening drive, with April getting her 1st of 2 interceptions on the day. The offense capitalized immediately, with Matt throwing a TD pass to Felix, and then converting the 2 point conversion via a run.

After giving up a TD on their opponent's next drive, reinforcements arrived in the form of Alison, who promptly scored on a long catch and run, putting What?! ahead 14-6. This lead lasted into halftime, as the defense stymied the opposition, via another interception by April and an end-zone pick by Felix.

In the 2nd half, What?! blew the game wide open, though in a unique fashion.

After an acrobatic interception from Alison, Felix, who paced the team in catches, converted a trick play, taking the snap and throwing to a wide open Matt in the end zone.

Immediately following, 14 points came in a span of 30 seconds, as Ronny picked off consecutive passes and ran them both back for touchdowns, with Tara chipping in on a 2 point conversion.

And with that barrage of scoring, the game was essentially won, with additional interceptions coming from Matt and Felix. What?!'s opponents were disheveled and demoralized, and could not manage much of anything else save a garbage time TD.

This was an important victory, as it keeps the team's playoff hopes alive. With a win this upcoming Sunday, What?! would essentially guarantee themselves a playoff spot. Look forward to the big day this weekend!
