THE other semis pairing at
the World Organized Rocball Community League started its series yesterday
at the Marianas High School Gym with the Dublon Chiefs and Watch &
Learn splitting the first two sets and the former leading midway through
the third.
The Dublon Chiefs, who are seeded third going into the playoffs, stunned
Watch & Learn in the opening set of Game 1 of their semis series,
with Ichnis Kapwich leading his team to a 17-0 victory.
Kapwich had four aces in the first set.
Watch & Learn put its acts together in the second set and recovered
with a close 15-14 victory.
Watch & Learn picked up where it left off leading by four, 10-6, midway
in the third set, which was halted, as students needed to return to class.
The game resumes today with Tarness Kapwich serving and his Dublon Chiefs
leading by 12, 37-25.
If the Dublon Chiefs hang on to the lead and win the fourth set, they
will take Game 1 of the best-of-three semis series and move a win away
from clinching a finals berth.
Inchnis has earned 10 points after two and a half sets, as aside from
the four aces, he also had a xunx.
Mark McDonald was leading Watch & Learn with seven points on an ace,
a kee and a goal. He drilled the loan goal so far in the game nailing
one in the third set.
Eight aces, a xunx, two kees and a goal were scored so far in the match.
The winner of the Dublon Chiefs-Watch & Learn series will face the
victor of the Mwaliyas-Da Lani Kynez tiff in a best-of-seven games title
showdown.
Mwaliyas took Game 1, escaping with a 64-57 double overtime victory last
Tuesday.
