Cleavers win 2008 SCDG League Championships!


Last night, the Leave It To Cleavers ended the Bomber Babes winning streak and their hopes of repeating as league champs. The Cleavers sealed the deal with a convincing 111-85 win. The team work and smart play that the Cleavers are known for was on display last night at the Salt Palace. The Cleavers effectively held back the Bombers’ jammers, even the exceptionally speedy and agile NOS. The effective blocking also allowed the Cleavers’ jammers to get through the pack to attain lead jam status much of the time. The Bombers also got into penalty trouble which made it difficult to organize any kind of comeback in the second half.

The win was an especially sweet ending to the careers of retiring skaters Miss Disco Bliss (team captain), Mannarama, Hard Knock Wife, and Midgimoto.

The Cleavers would like to extend our thanks to the Bomber Babes for a great game and for setting the bar so high. Also to our families, friends, and sponsors who’ve supported us this season. Thanks to the refs and support staff for their tireless work, without them we wouldn’t be able to play this amazingly fun game.
