“Kondor crossed the pitch and shook hands with TexMurphy. His ladies had played a great match, but this one simply was not to be.

Black magic was in the air, and often the players hallucinated as they saw more than one ball on the field. Toward the end of the first half, Nina could have sworn she had the ball in her hands, but suddenly it was several squares away on the ground.

Both coaches called a time out, and waited until halftime for the effects to pass. The second half saw a mad scramble for the ball, and it looked as if the ladies would pick up the ball as Nikki finally went boneheaded. Now, the time for ball control and safety passed, and Lucy made a desperate dash for the ball. She managed to dodge past a blocker, pick up the ball, and dodge past her again. She was left looking at her hands as the slippery skink moved to the endzone.

Still, with time remaining, Tex urged his girls forward. The game was nearly lost as Albee did not see Gina. She tried to blitz the ball carrier only to be tripped and fall flat on her face.

The door was open, but Nuffle would have none of it this evening. The pass fell incomplete, and time ran out as everyone scrambled for the ball.
