“It’s such an exciting season, so many close games, diverse strategies and hard hitting plays. Every game teams are bringing new stuff to the table and playing every jam like it might be their last. I can’t believe how fast this season has gone by, I’m not ready for it to end! Championships are going to be epic,” said Betsy Nails, AKA Liz Argall of Grave Danger.
