Post-match breakdown

What we did well
  • Bonus-point hunting

    Rafael dropped the 8 on the break. Free points off the rack.

  • Punched up

    Rafael (SL6) took down a SL7 — the kind of W that swings a night.

  • 2-for-2 on the hill

    Mike and Rafael both closed out hill-hill races. Cool under pressure.

  • Nothing given away

    Zero sweeps conceded, zero bonus shots allowed. Tight defense across the whole night.

What to clean up
  • Slow out of the gate

    Dropped the lead-off 1-2 — playing from behind all night is harder than it needs to be.

  • Couldn't shut the door

    Anchor went down 2-3 with the team match within reach. That's the one to win.

  • 3 hill-hill losses

    Timothy, Donald, and John all dropped hill-hill matches. Closing-out drills pay back fast.
