The total of 123 ICL points for June generated the closest distance that any team has come to the leader from the Czech Republic (128) this year. The iFLY Dallas team had a total of 127 points as the highest score in June and August last year, which even outscored the Hurricane Factory in the summer month of August when Czech teams and competitors prefer outdoor 4-way, and only 4-way juniors score for the ICL team, if they are not on summer vacation. The AAA/AA Class lineup at iFLY Dallas came even close to the score of Skywalkers Junior for the AA sequence (24 - 26).
Both player-coaches at iFLY Dallas, Kyle Hermberg and Lucas King, had regular participant Alexa Boushey in their AAA/AA lineup, and a new ICL competitor at iFLY Dallas completed the team for the day. However, the 4th member is a very experienced 4-way competitor, even though he has focused mostly on 8-way recently. Brian Ball is one of the earliest SDC Rhythm XP members. He won the first medals for Rhythm, with the 3rd place in 4-way AAA/Advanced at the USPA Nationals 2007, together with Laurent Beaudouin, JaNette and Steve Lefkowitz, Kevin Nafzger on camera. He trained and competed with Rhythm and the same lineup until they won the USPA gold medals in the same category a year later with a 16.9 average.

In fact, Prison 9 is now the strongest U.S. 8-way team behind XP8 who are rebuilding the lineup this year. Doug Barron and Brian Ball finished in 2nd place at the Paraclete XP Indoor Championship 2025 with their current Prison 9 lineup. They travel to the Netherlands next month, where they are expected to be an 8-way medal contender for the U.S. delegation at the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2025 in Teuge.
However, Brian Ball went back to 4-way when he visited iFLY Dallas in June, and he teamed up with the three ICL regulars for the AAA/AA combination. The total of 49 points for the AAA/AA combination turned out to be the highest scoring number in the history of iFLY Dallas participation at Indoor Cloud League events. Brian Ball's former Prison 9 team mate Scott Latinis player-coached the RRR lineup (Christina Cooper, Aaron Perkins, Nick Anderson) to the highscore in this category. Paraclete XP (A) and iFLY Fort Lauderdale (R) posted highscores, as well. Czech junior team HF Fenix/Junior Green added the RR Class score of 21 points to the two highscores of Skywalkers Junior.
