Team 91 orange - they boast that they are unbeatable. who says that about themselves? Team 91 cant face that the terps are just as good if not better. instead, they actually published an excuse that is it was hot outside. That's right, no other team was exhausted and hot. Poor winners and poor losers.


From the 91Xtreme web site

Any Given Sunday" - Xtreme falls in the championship game to the Express Terps



Most would think that playing on the turf all day would be an advantage but not the case in high 80 degree weather. Playing on a surface 20 degrees hotter than grass just takes a toll after awhile as 91Xtreme lost to a well prepared Express Terps team

Day 1: What a way to start a tournament; Xtreme vs Express. A local rival, the Express Terps put up a great battle in the first game. Each team had their opportunities but the Goalies at both ends of the field weren't giving in so easily. In the end, Xtreme took the win by a score of 5-2.



Xtreme's next opponent came all the way from Texas to try their hand at beating the Xtreme. Very big, fast and physical.........all of which were used to try and shake the Xtreme off their game plan; but it just didn't work. They rose to the occasion, lifted their game even higher and went on to beat the Mustangs by a score of 9-3. Many thanks to the Texas Mustangs for coming all that way to Long Island and giving us a game.



Day 2: Xtreme started their day 2 run with a 10-0 1st game win against a Michigan team that just couldn't keep pace with the Xtreme style of play. Although the score looked like they played their best; Xtreme looked a little sluggish from the heat. Game 2 was against a very good Bucks Select Red team. The Bucks had good ball movement and a very tenacious style of play. They kept the pressure on the Xtreme and penetrated the offensive end on several occasions but came up short. Althouh the Xtreme had their hands full, they managed to keep the goals knotted at 3 for a final score of 3-3.



Semi-Finals: After some tournament confusion about which team would make the playoffs and which would be going home; Xtreme found themselves seeded 1st and facing off against the 4th seed Bucks Select team on the hot turf for a second time. The Express Terps would face the 91 Raiders in the other semi-final round. This time the Xtreme wasted no time and got on the board first with a quick goal. They stayed in the lead the entire game and won by a score of 6-4. The Terps beat the Raiders in a convincing 9-2 score.



Final: REMATCH. How appropriate that our cross town nemesis from the first game would be standing in the wings to be Xtreme's competition in the Championship game. It goes without saying that the Terps would be more than ready to show the Xtreme that they are a team to be reckoned with. The Terps played a great game and proved that on "Any Given Sunday", the best can be beat. Congrats to the Terps!!
