Championship Game Summary
Oh Mercy! 31, The A Team 15
This year's Co-rec championship featured last year's champion Oh
Mercy!, formerly known as the Norman
Pheeney's, against The A Team. When
these teams met during league play, Oh
Mercy gave The A Team a 24-9 bruising.
The A Team was hoping this championship
would be their sweet revenge.
Oh
Mercy! set the tone of the contest right
from the beginning. On The A Team's
first possession, defensive specialist Tom
Verdell applied plenty of pressure on the
quarterback, who threw a hasty pass that
was intercepted by Dwayne Evans. Oh
Mercy! moved the ball down field but
was unable to score. After The A Team's
three plays and out punt, Oh Mercy!
revved up the offense a bit behind
Megan Beilenson's terrific 9-point touch
down catch in the end zone. Later, with
Oh Mercy/on offense again, captain and
quarterback Dan Rimerman hit receiver
Max Cabral streaking down the sideline.
Cabral never looked back and Oh
Mercy was quickly up 15-0.
The A Team did not quit, however, and
Jaclyn Longtine beat the entire Oh
Mercy! defense for a touchdown. Oh
Mercy! responded with another
Beilenson touchdown catch and Oh
Mercy! led 25-9 at the half.
The second half showcased more of Oh
Mercy's suffocating defense. Robin Black
led Oh Mercy! with four pass deflections. The A Team was not able to erase
the early lead. Each team added a
touchdown in the second half, and Oh
Mercy cruised to a 31-15 repeat
championship.
