Both teams are playing even better now than last they played. Though Crisis is undefeated, Los Aztecas came real close in their first 2 games losing by just a combined 8 pts top opponents. Matchup to watch is Los Aztecas OL vs Crisis DL, likely to determine outcome.<\/p>\n<h4>10:30am (0-2)LB Ballers vs (0-2)Terror Squad+1<\/h4>\n<p>LB Ballers won 20-6 in 1st meeting during Winter league, then 15-12 in Spring league.

PT takes #1 seed for A-class play-in games next week. YG will toss the A-class seeding into the air with a win. In either case the winner takes series bragging rights.<\/p>\n<h4>1:30pm (1-1)PWO vs (0-2)Bertolotti+9<\/h4>\n<p>PWO won their only meeting 18-6 in Spring League. Bertolotti needs a win to stay competitive in the A-Class play-in games.<\/p>\n<h4>3:15pm (2-0)Jokers vs (2-0)Dirty Goats+4<\/h4>\n<p>Dirty Goats only meeting with the Jokers was last Fall league and was a close 18-22 loss. DG playing even better now, and be looking to take down the veterans to stay undefeated in the Summer and tie the series.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">UPSET OF THE WEEK<\/h3>\n<p>None as there was no predictions, but Young Gunz avenging their Spring League Bowl game O.T. loss to Bertolotti (27-20) with a 12-7 win would&#8217;ve qualified.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Crazy Game<\/h4>\n<p>Crisis beat LB Ballers when they scored on 4th &amp; goal with just 0:02 left in game. LB Ballers started fast and held a 2 score lead at halftime. However, Crisis came out hot and was rolling after taking the lead on a punt return TD. LBB could&#8217;ve folded after that but showed character and poise in putting together a TD drive to take the lead back and came within 2sec. of winning. Both teams showed competitive poise as both could&#8217;ve folded it up, but neither got down and remained focused. A fun 22-20 game to watch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mr. Rogers Neighborhood We opened Summer League in week 1 with our coolest week yet in Summer League, high for the day was just 82, last Summer the coolest day was 100 (all 6 weeks were 100-103).
