Consolation Bracket:

Ripple 14, Weakest Link 6

Random 19, Team Colorado 6
The youth of Random dominated the game with speed and skills. However, Colorado played hard the entire time.

Ripple 12, Last Call 2
This was an intense game the whole way. Even though Ripple was down two players, they pulled together to dominate possession of the ball. Their many years of experience paid off as half of the team would qualify for a masters team.

Random 14, Gotham Women's Lacrosse 5
Random jumped in at the first draw and dominated right away.

Weakest Link 15, Team Colorado 12
Despite beer cheers and on-field photo ops, Weakest Link could not make their 15 goals count. In the end, a forfeit helped Weakest Link win with fun in their hearts, but Team Colorado came away with the victory.
