Gaels Sunday, CUUC 2009
Sunday, Oct 18.
Defeated Waterloo 12-6
Loss to Carleton 12-11
Win over UBC(forfeited)
Mothership woke up on Sunday to find itself with beat-up handlers but that wasn't something that painkillers won't cure. We took half at 8-2 against Waterloo and was graced by the arrival of Andy, who gave the other hadlers their much needed rest. Shortly after half, Evan threw a Greatest off of Andy's 60 yard huck to the end zone which fired up the team and Mothership marched on to win quaterfinals 12-6.
There was this weird feeling that was a mixture of excitement, nervousness, and uncertainly inside me when I was warming up for the semi-finals. Mothership has not been at the semis at CUUC since 2006 and I didn't know how to react to it. The cheer before the game started was noticeably louder than all the other ones during the tourney, I can tell that everyone was ready to go.
Carleton started on zone D and our offense was shaky at first. Motherhp found itself down 2-0 before the offense regrouped and started producing points. For the rest of the game, it was just a series of back and forth between the two teams, each tweaking and adjusting strategies, hoping to gain the lead as both teams were trading points. There was alot of sweet offensive grabes and defensive bids from both sides. Mothership was down 11-12 until richie came down with a high-flying disc with two Carelton defenders on him to force the game into universe point. However, Carelton ended up winning the game and advanced to the finals against Western. After, UBC forfeited the bronze medal game due to shortage of players and Queen's ended up finished third in the Nation: Not a bad way to finish off the season.
This year's Canadian season was definitely the most enjoyable one for me, lots of close fought games and hard earned victories,
Great job ship,
Erns.
