5s dominate Ranchers in Premier Level finale

The New Jersey 5s (8-2, 23 points) concluded their MLP Austin schedule with a 3-1 victory over the Texas Ranchers (5-3, 16 points) on Monday afternoon.

It was the perfect way for New Jersey to rebound after falling to the defending champion Dallas Flash in a DreamBreaker on Sunday.

"We just needed to have a goldfish memory. It's a long, long season. We've got 25 matches apiece, so we're going to win some, we're going to lose some," said 5s captain, Zane Navratil. "Nobody's going to end up with an undefeated season, and we had points left to get today."

 

Here are the results from Monday's match between New Jersey and Texas:

WD: Anna Leigh Waters/Meghan Dizon (NJ) def. Tina Pisnik/Etta Tuionetoa (TEX) 11-5

MD: Will Howells/Zane Navratil (NJ) def. Christian Alshon/Eric Oncins (TEX) 11-7

MXD: Meghan Dizon/Zane Navratil (NJ) def. Tina Pisnik/Eric Oncins (TEX) 11-8

MXD: E. Tuionetoa/Christian Alshon (TEX) def. Anna Leigh Waters/Will Howells (NJ) 11-9
