The 4-team competition in the AAA/Open Class ended with a "tie-breaker" between Elsinore Gravity and Thunder. The battle between both teams had gone back and forth throughout the first five rounds and was tied before going into round six. The slow and technical sequence (19-11-18) was not really perfectly suited to break a tie.
The Elsinore team did not look faster than Thunder at all. Actually, Gravity's strategy to master the technically challenging sequence looked almost cautious and slow. The result was a flawless performance based on a good exit and an average pace.
The competition between Thunder and Elsinore Gravity was exciting to watch, and the NSL-TV audience surely appreciated the great show over six rounds. The next SSL meet is coming up on May 20 in Perris, and both teams will hopefully take it on once again. This time, the Perris home team, Perris Fury, will probably make it a 3-way race.
Elsinore Select and Arizona Divewerkz had their tie-breaker already in round five, as the NSL News story on April 28 reported. Select added two more points to the lead in round six and ended up with a 5-point advantage over Arizona Divewerkz.
