From Matthew Bourland of 7 Minute Abs:
Erin Peck and I captained that year and we entered the draft knowing
basically nobody. We only picked friends and former teammates, and I recall
picking Mark McGreggor solely because his name was capitalized.
David LaRose was discovered as a premere cheermister, and one memorable
cheer involved a tall tale ode to Stan Marshall to the
Sly and the Family Stone song, "Stand".
This team bonded like no other team i've been on, and we had weekly pot luck
dinners during a summer we all discovered the concept of good beer. Our low
expectations and comradery probably made our losing easier, although we did
upset #5 seed MI-7 in the finals and lost a close game to Summer League Ultimate Team
in which I learned the hard way that a zone that double teams all the time
is hard to beat.
