Team Summary
Ghost Games for 30Hustle was all about Staying in the Fight, regardless of the score, or opponents. We are working on a solid competitive mindset!  Events like this remind us that the scoreboard only tells part of the story. It is about learning to Stay in the Fight, no matter the outcome. The 30Hustle team exemplified this in their second game, bringing unmatched energy and going ALL OUT against Nor'easter 2030 WHITE. They took every halftime adjustment to heart, putting it into action immediately. They played some of the BEST defense they have ever played, communicating, causing turnovers and getting open in transition. This growth is the true definition of “winning the process” and how the scoreboard does not tell the entire story!

The REVlaxers took all they learned from their 2nd game and brought it into game three, showing up ready to leave it all on the field. Playing all out from whistle to whistle, they battled fiercely and pulled away with a hard-fought 6-5 victory over Metro: Green 2030. The team truly won the process at the Ghost Games, and we couldn’t be more fired up for what lies ahead with this group!
