TODAY'S GAMES
Round 1: Court 1 UK vs AIR FORCE
Court 2 ARMY vs USMC
Court 3 NAVY vs SOCOM
Air Force was flying high early in game one versus the Brits. Team UK was looking for their first win of the Warrior Games and they played a solid first half...but the host team methodically kept pressure on our friends from across the pond and had an 11 point lead, 17-6. To open the second half, USAF went on a 10-2 run and stretched their lead to 27-8. With 5 minutes left to play, Air Force had a 37-10 lead. In the end, Air Force cruised to a 42-14 win.
Army jumped out to an early 4-0 lead 30 seconds into Game One. The undefeated team rolled to a 12-0 lead over 2-2 Marine Corps. The Marines fought their way back cutting the halftime deficit to 18-12. The Marines scored the first bucket of the second half and evidently that made Army mad as they went on a 12-2 run. Army kept it going...39-14 at the 4-minute mark, 43-14 at the 2-minute mark, and a 47-14 final score to stay undefeated.
Navy came into tonight's matchup with SOCOM sporting a 2-2 record. By the looks of it, they really didn't want to go to 2-3 because they were all over Team Special Ops Command. At the 2-minute mark of the first half, the Midshipmen had a 14-2 lead and went to the locker room up 18-2. The second half mirrored the first as Navy continued to roll. At the 6-minute mark, the Midshipmen opened up a 23-4 lead and when the clock hit all zeros, it was Navy winning 31-6.

Air Force (3 seed) was facing a tough Navy outfit in their home gym and got the home cookin going early. USAF ripped off 10 quick points to stun the second seeded Midshipmen. Navy bounced back by scoring 7 of their own but Air Force chipped in 5 more to lead 15-7 w/ 8:41 left in the first frame. When halftime came, USAF stretched their lead to 21-12 over Navy. Air Force dominated the opening minutes of the second half and extended their lead to 29-14 at the 15 minute mark. Navy calmed down and rolled off 6 points to cut the lead to 33-20. But Air Force proved to be too strong down the stretch as the 3 seed upsets the 2, 44-25. Air Force will play Army in the Championship GOLD Medal Game, Saturday at 2pm.
In the consolation bracket, SOCOM faced off against Team UK. This one was chippy and hard fought. SOCOM jumped out to an 8-0 lead early and held it all the way to the half up, 14-0. In the second half there wasn't much scoring, but plenty of action. Crashes, fouls, and tough play was the tone and both teams gave it their all but in the end, it was SOCOM winning 18-4.
