Megatron's Jock Strap finished off a perfect season on Wednesday night, the second perfect season in XOSO history. Despite being short handed all night, MJS defeated Beans and Rice in the opening round, in a harrowing victory that took the favorites to the bring of elimination in overtime before they were able to finish strong and secure the victory. In the second round MJS had an easier time with Ball Sac who had dispatched Team America in their opening round match.

On the other side of the bracket, top seeded Out Like a Fat Kid cruised past Your Mom in the first round before running into division rivals, Balls Deep. In the hardest fought game this dodgeballer (and Fat Kid) has ever played, BD prevailed in overtime, a grueling 4 games to 3. The turning point of the match occurred when the last remaining BDer, Angela Grandinetti, hit a half court shot to bring her teammates back in, swinging the momentum and ultimately sending the match into overtime. Balls Deep avenged their regular season loss to More Balls Than Brains.

Unrested, but undaunted, the short handed MJS squad, led by captain Andres Perez managed to take an early lead and just barely hang on to it, seeing their lead slip to one as the clock slipped to zero.

XOSO is a sport and social league that serves the greater Sacramento area, creating coed sports leagues for adults. XOSO's athletes compete in dodgeball, kickball, volleyball and capture the flag with more sports to come.

Correction -- Justin Studebaker is actually the captain of MJS. Andres is just the one who does most of the yelling.

My apologies, Justin.
