Creamsicles Spark Win

Reading, MA - Origins Unknown used the momentum of Cap'n Mike's new Creamsicles to blast a short-handed Kickin' Time 76-56 last week at the Reading YMCA, and move back to .500 on the session.

The "Creamsicles" are the Cap's new Nike shoes - specifically the KDII in bright orange (And, I mean bright).



The shoes caused a stir before the game even started, as some of the Warriors players gawked at the sheer brilliance of their glow - while still playing their own game. And, as Jonesy and Danger Dan Fisher walked in the gym, they simply stared and shook their heads.

Once the game got underway, Kickin' Time faced an uphill fight due to the loss of their big man, and one of their slick guards. They may have also been in awe of the Creamsicles as they bounded up and down the court like a neon gazelle.

OU was able to run a lead of 5 to 12 points throughout much of the half. Birthday Boy James Stretch Hogan IV and Jonesy seemed to simply outpace KT. OU rebounded well, and was able to push the pace enough to knock KT onto their heels as the half wound down. If not for a quick run to end the half, and some hard luck misses by OU - the damage could have been much worse.

Big Dan Rasanen went to work in the second half, and immediately asserted himself on the low block. After 7 straight points by Big Dan, the game started to spiral out of reach for KT. Meanwhile, OU didn't let up and the attack left no doubt in the outcome.

The win sets OU up with an outside chance at the playoffs, as they take on an always-stingy Stiffler's Mom next week.
