Summer Co-ed Dodgeball at Jefferson High School Wednesdays (Outdoor )

A new court and the sting of new rubber balls didn't set Kristin Eberle back one bit as she played with a reckless abandon that helped Team Batwing rack up a win their first match before being falling to the Go Big or Go Home Squad later in their second match.
Even in her team's loss Kristin didn't let up. It seemed that in almost every game she was the last (wo)man standing and it wasn't because she spent time hiding behind other players or spectating in the corner. In fact, it appears as though Eberle's prefers to battle it out inches from the mid court line where she can usually be found during the course of a match.
In the opening day of Wednesday night Dodge Ball Kristin Eberle showed it takes more than some rubber balls to get it done on the court.
So here's to you Kristin, you're our Wednesday Night Underdog Dodge ball Player of the Week!

It is clear that the MAKE IT RAIN squad is out to make a name for themselves. A good portion of the team can lay down some serious rubber artillery and they think nothing of selling out and sacrificing their bodies to the unforgiving Jefferson High tennis courts.
The game of Dodgeball can be a little intimidating to those who haven't played before let alone to rookies who play on hardcore squads like MAKE IT RAIN. Even so rookie Megan Dickeman in only her third week has decided to wave goodbye to the rookie jitters.
So what it is a person to do if you have a heavy rubber ball rocketing at you? Some people dodge, dip, dive, duck, or...dodge? While Megan CATCHES it. The rookie was possessed in the MAKE IT RAIN match-ups this week and made some gnarly grabs that kept her team in the game.
When asked if she was having fun playing dodgeball Megan replied, "Yeah, it hurt less this week.' Well remember Megan, pain is just weakness leaving the body so you must be getting stronger because your dodgeball skillz definitely are.
So congrats Megan, you are the Wednesday Night Underdog Dodgeball Player of the Week!

A multi-sport Underdog Player, Leland Cockcroft is a force to be reckoned with on the Dodgeball court or the Flag Football Field. A veteran in both sports, Cockcroft likes playing Flag Football but admits Dodgeball hi sport of choice. "We're better at it," Leland says of his Hertz Donut team and their Dodgeball talent. However, whether its the gridiron or the court, it is clear Leland and Hertz Donut are all about having fun.
The tall Cockcroft has cannon but is also very deceptive and tricky with how he throws a dodgeball. He also isn't afraid to change levels and is very hard to get at. Even in tense situations Leland's the guy playing with a smile and cracking jokes.
So Congrats to Leland Cockcroft, Our Wednesday Night Dodgeball Player of the Week!

A lot of players say they let their play do their talking. Which is ironic because if you actually speak those words is your play really doing your talking?
Palmer Coe doesn't have that problem. His play does his talking. He speaks with pinpoint accuracy in his dodgeball throws and his sure-handed catches get a lot of verbal responses, mostly from opposing players as they walk to the sideline. Through all the commotion, Palmer is usually pretty silent. He just wants to have a good time and wants his teammates and opponents do the same.
This season wasn't Coe's first rodeo. Watching him play its apparent the man's been playing dodgeball for quite some time. He knows all the tricks but relies mainly on skill that only comes with experience.
So Congrats to Palmer Coe, a nice guy with a dodgeball attitude, and our UNDERDOG WEDNESDAY NIGHT DODGEBALL PLAYER OF THE WEEK!
