With the Islanders still reigning supreme in “Gorilla Games” in the World Organized Rocball Community League, organizer of the event is looking for the next worthy challenger.
The Islanders ruled the biweekly “Gorilla Games” for the fifth straight time after clobbering Mariano’s Boyz, 105-67, Saturday at the Marianas High School Gymnasium.
The Islanders took only four regular sets to include Mariano’s Boyz on their victims list. The first four were Evenflow, Soul Rebels, Seven King, and No-Mercy.
Among the five challengers, it was No-Mercy which gave the Islanders a run for their money.
No Mercy defeated the Islanders in the first two sets, 26-20, 26-16, before collapsing in the last two sets, 6-26, 10-25, allowing the latter to escape with a 87-72 juiced-out victory.
In each win, Islanders took home the $50 prize, bringing their total winnings to $250 after two and a half months of being undefeated in “Gorilla Games.”
The total earnings of the Islanders will be the same amount that can be won by the team that will beat the reigning king of “Gorilla Games.”
”Rocball Gorilla Games is offering $250 prize to any team that can defeat the Islanders, whether it is on the hard court or on the beach,” Saipan Rocball creator James Feger said in a media release.
If more than one team show up for the next tournament, these teams have to play in the elimination round with the winning team earning the right to face the Islanders.
No entrance fee will be collected in the elimination round.
