Old Rival Kasey's falls to the Defending Champs

June 26, 2006

During the Village Idiots 2005 summer championship run, they had to get past a very tough Kasey's team that has had good success in prior seasons.  Well last year V.I. ran over Kasey's and this past Monday night was no different.  The Idiots improved to 2-0 on the season after beating Kasey's 50-38, the win was also the Idiots 8th in a row marking back to last season.

The 1st quarter was a pitchers duel as both teams struggled from the field due to some windy conditions.  V.I. took a 7-6 lead into the 2nd quarter and thats when the Idiots took over.  Solid D all around helped the Idiots to shutout Kasey's in the quarter 14-0.
 
The second half got interesting.  Last season's playoff game had some drama when Forward Matt Shiels took a punch to the chest from the Kasey's owner Tom (who also sucks at basketball).  Tom was ejected from the game and the V.I. went on to win their 1st championship.  After a scoreless 2nd quarter Kasey's started to bitch and whiiiiiiiinnnnnne, at the start of the 3rd.  As forward Greg Gormsen (4 points, 5 rebounds) was playing his usual hard-nose defense on Tom, the "tough guy" as Gormsen called him, shoved Gormsen to the ground.  Benches cleared but all was broken up and both players received technical fouls.
 
After a timeout, the Idiots went on to have their highest scoring quarter (21 points) of the short season behind some big plays from Frank "the Tank" Kelly and Freddy Paul.  The Tank (10 points, 5 rebounds) and the Fribulator hooked up several times in the quarter to help put the V.I. up 16 heading into the 4th.  Some more Idiot style defense and a key three-pointer from Forward Tommy "those are my nipples poppin out" Casal, put away Kasey's for the 50-38 victory.
 
Casal and Fribble each had a game high 12 points, with Casal pulling down 6 rebounds and Fred collecting 7 boards to go with 4 assists and 2 steals.  Joe Young led all Idiots with 8 rebounds.
