Dallas Dodgeball Team Wins Frisco Fieldhouse Tournament

19 February 2011

A team from Dallas Dodgeball won first place in the adult division in the Frisco Fieldhouse's February 19th dodgeball tournament. The tournament was challenging for the Dallas Dodgeball team, as other teams had purchased "lifelines" prior to the tournament. Lifelines allow players who are out to reenter the game by presenting the lifeline wristband to the official. Tom Wakefield, team captain, said the tournament felt like a bad science fiction movie, as opposing players seemed to be replicating or cloning themselves with new lives. "We kept getting players out, only for them to reappear seconds later," said the captain. During the championship game, the team had to get one player out four times. Dallas Dodgeball was proud to have won the tournament having used just one lifeline the entire tournament.
