Acme Roofing sweeps regular season

Acme Roofing ended the regular season of the 2008 Miller Lite Four-Person Beach Volleyball League on perfect note, sweeping the MHS Peers in three sets last Thursday on the PIC sand court.

Acme Roofing pulled off a 21-18, 22-20, 22-20 victory to finish the regular season with a clean 10-0 slate and secure the league’s pennant title.

The MHS Peers dropped to a 6-4 record.

Three other squads also capped their bids in the regular season on a winning fashion.

The MHS 67 Doh-Fins finally broke into the win column, slipping past Champ-On.

Champ-on took the opening set, 21-11, but lost composure in the last two sets allowing the MHS 67 Doh-Fins to escape with a 21-18, 21-14 triumph which ended the latter’s nine-game losing skid.

Despite the win, the Doh-Fins are already out of contention for the playoffs, along with Champ-on and MHS Serves Up!

The MHS Serves Up! failed to win its last game of the season bowing to Off Twice in the second match of the last day of the regular season.

Off Twice clinched the win early when it swept the first two sets in similar scores 21-14, before MHS Serves Up! recovered and saved a 21-13 victory in the third set.

In the third game, Enyophace swept the MHS Oakies, 21-10, 21-19, 22-20.

Enyophace closed out the regular season in second place with a 9-1 record.
