The SHC’s Week 2 results started to show who the title contenders are and which teams need to work a little harder. Franchises Red and White kicked ass, Black and Yellow had sore asses while Blue and Green each made out evenly.
Friday night’s Ducks-Hairy Crabs game didn’t get decided until midway through the 3rd when Rupert Cao won it for Crabs. Captain Jan conducted a masterpiece in his team’s 7-1 sinking of the Vikings, registering 6 points himself, as the Dirty Blues moved to 1-1.
Red’s IceCocks had enough thrust and endurance with their 8 players to outlast the Puckhounds’ complete team and won easily 4-0, with ‘König’ Karl earning the shutout between the pipes. From one king to a couple of others as the duo of Wang Zhiqiang and Wang Ye led defending A League champs the Fog Devils to a tight win over the Bulldogs.
Always Picked Last and the Paper Tigers combined for another Whiteout, never being threatened by the Foo Dogs or Killer Pandas respectively. APL’s BBS line of Boot, Brennan and Shama all did their Michael Vick impersonations in murdering the Foo Dogs while the short-handed Paper Tigers clawed their way past the surprisingly tame Killer Pandas with SHC rookies Harrison and Dunkerley fiercest in keeping the streak alive.
Week 3 starts this Friday with a great lineup of juicy match-ups!
