Westerns: Open - Quarter Final Results

Update from a NWS Admin/Chaperone.

Apparently very windy and muddy.

All final scores.

Lakeside 10
v
CD-Hall 7

Hopkins 9
v
Cathedral 11

Monroe 9
v
SEHS 6

Hale 6
v
SAAS 9

Semi matchups:
Lakeside
v
Cathedral

Monroe
v
SAAS

Nobody from Seattle is surprised by Monroe. Monroe has been a competitive team here for years. A strong indicator of success is our MS leagues and the state tourney. These same great Monroe kids won the MS league two years running when they were 7th/8th graders. SAAS finished 2nd. Lakeside did well in MS and picked up some great 9th graders. In state last year Lakeside and Monroe played a 10-9 game or something like that for 3rd place.

These past two years public school teams that don't feed Nathan Hale have won the MS league. Don't be surprised if in a couple of years there are some more Seattle Public HS teams that are very strong.

i'm surprised by monroe. they are better than people give them credit for, but let's be honest, against south? i'm sorry but on a clear day they wouldn't stand a chance. that being said, part of ultimate is playing the weather. great job monroe, making semis is a huge accomplishment.

though i heard a rumor that there was some less than spirited play going on during that game. anyone more informed care to comment?

really south? really? ...wow...
i would not be at all surprised if there was some unspirited play, some of the south boys get a little mad when they lose...

monroe isn't the most spirited team out there, either.
