Evenflow and Brothers were tied, 99-99 at the end of the fourth set when Lisua fired the decisive hit during the only overtime set needed to help Evenflow win the game and bring home $50.
It was a sudden death on the part of the Brothers as over time sets are won by the team that scores either 10 points or a goal or whichever comes first.
In the first set, Evenflow shot out to 26 to 16 win giving them a ten-point margin into the second set.
The Ghasias Brothers, however took the second set 26 to 25 and chipped the game point lead down to nine.
But Ghasias Brothers came from behind in the third set and won with a four-point margin 29 to 25. With this, Brothers cut a little deeper into Evenflow’s lead ending the third set 76 to 71.
Under the quarter/set rules of Rocball play, a team not only has to outscore their opponents in game points, they must also win the fourth set “juice-out” to win the game.
The Ghasias Brothers needed to win this set by six points and Evenflow only had to win the fourth set to win the game.
The Ghaisias Brothers managed to win the fourth set, but only by five points. The Ghasias Brothers won set four 28 to 23 and forced the game into overtime.
Even though the Ghasias Brothers won three out of the four sets of regular play, Rocball is not a rally point scoring.
Because teams were tied at the end of the fourth, only one set of overtime was needed to determine the winner.
Evenflow had the lead 7 to 2 in overtime when Mariano finished the game.
