Oct 19th,2004
Baton Rouge,LA
This year’s World Cup Qualifier in Baton Rouge was smaller than
2003, but it was certainly an exciting one. With six teams playing
in the seven-man division, it was a fun day of football in Baton
Rouge, even though the mighty LSU Tigers were taking a weekend off.
The six teams had pool play in the morning, and playoffs in the
afternoon. Each of the six teams were interesting to watch in their
own right.
The
Plumbers were a scrappy & intense team that will be one to watch if
they move on the World Cup. The Sons of Asia were a reunion team
that used to “rule the school” at LSU as the second-ranked team for
four years in a row. They were a little rusty coming together
again, but just as fast with some impressive moves. Goin’ for One
stayed true to their name, and every extra point opportunity was
played for the single point, and took a while to “gel” after having
added some new players to their roster. KAS was also a blending of
two teams – with some super-athleticism, but their lack of play
together made it tough for them to find their chemistry & get into a
groove. Hollywood Candy Corporation were newcomers to World Cup
play, but a team with good athleticism and lots of heart. And of
course, the Hitmen of New Orleans were also in the house. What is
there to say about this team that has played together for so many
years? Except that even though they don’t play much together as a
team these days, they still have a chemistry that allows them to
dominate on the field.
The
playoff games were intense & exciting to watch, as KAS lost in a
heartbreaker to Hollywood Candy Corporation (Hollywood). KAS
attempted to go for two and the win, but their receiver had only one
foot in bounds, so they would lose by one point, (and one foot).
Later in playoffs, The Hitmen run ruled Goin’ for One as they caught
four interceptions and converted all of them to touchdowns, over a
team that seemed to struggle to find chemistry with some new
members, and those missed communications is what would hurt Goin’
for One in the long run. And another heartbreaker would send
Hollywood to the championship game, as the Plumbers were stopped at
third & goal, and Hollywood’s defense would bat the ball down in the
endzone for the win.
The
Championship game featured the Hollywood Candy Corporation facing
off against the Hitmen of New Orleans. In the first half, Hollywood
would score first, but the Hitmen would answer back with some big
defensive plays and offensive drives that seemed unstoppable, as
halftime finished with the Hitmen up 27 – 13. The second half would
open with a Hollywood offensive drive, but the defensive pressure by
the Hitmen would earn the Hitmen a safety. However, the Hitmen
threw an interception on their drive, putting the momentum back into
the hands of Hollywood. The Hitmen’s defense came through yet
again, batting down a ball in the endzone to prevent Hollywood from
scoring. Hollywood would score again, but couldn’t convert the
extra points, and then the Hitmen threw an interception. Hollywood
would score again to bring the count to 36 – 25. Hollywood would go
for two again inside the two-minute warning, but the Hitmen’s
defense pulls through again and batted down the ball, and the clock
would wind down leaving the Hitmen with the win. Another exciting
Saturday filled with football down in the bayou could bring some
anticipation for this year’s World Cup play to a field near
you.
