Some intense games unfolded on the KA courts tonight. The big story was Nick Metcalfe and the Constructivists, who strolled to an easy 21 - 6 victory over the Modernists in their second game, Metcalfe scoring 13 times, and every player registering points and assists (except captain Jamie Poskin, who sat the entire game). Chunsun Baak made baskets, steals, and rebounds like a pro tonight for the Modernists, but the team — drafted for their speed and soccer skills — lacked the height to win their first basketball game. The Cubists’ Rex Chen played like a champion, as did his threatening teammates Avery “the goose” Silverman and Alex Pusey. But the vicious triumvirate couldn’t squeak a victory out of the still-undefeated Constructivists, even with the added tough play of Kevin “money train” Tang and Chandler Davis-Phelps. Gregory Owen of the Surrealists hit some nice shots from outside, and Kyler Crawford played the post like a mixed-breed of Dennis Rodman and Hakeem Olajuwon. The Cubists and Surrealists’ game went down to the wire, ending at a tie in overtime and with a bunch of sweaty counselors and ballers.

And on the pitch, Kristie Girl and Joshua Lee of the Post-Impressionists had strong showings, and Timothy So blocked a zillion goals, but it wasn’t enough to conquer their rivals, the Impressionists, or the league-leading Vampire Slayers. Cameron Bates and Peter Joe had solid games for the Impressionists, who picked up a win and a loss on the evening. Carlos Domene ended the controversy over his penalty kick against the Post-Impressionists by scoring an authoritative goal in the final minutes to give the Vampire Slayers a 3 - 1 victory. Braxton Carr scored a goal and then took a hard foul in the box, showing the highs and lows of the wonderful game of soccer. And Calvin “forced field” Chang saved a goal and the Vampire Slayers from their first loss by stealing the ball from a Post-Impressionist striker in the twentieth minute near the goal. An exciting day all around for the KA Camp Cup.
