\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 3:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> LBS, Inc. leads 8-3
\n2009 Result:<\/strong> Week 2 – Sky Fighters 3, LBS, Inc. 1; Week 16 – LBS, Inc. 5, Sky Fighters 0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This rubber match between Schloeder Division rivals LBS, Inc. and the Sky Fighters will also determine one of the four semifinalists for the BTSH championship.\u00a0 LBS, Inc. cruised to the second round with a 4-0 shutout of Cobra Kai.\u00a0 BTSH regular season scoring champion Karsten Pichon\u00a0notched a hat trick, while goalie Seth Wachtell earned the shutout.\u00a0 The Sky Fighters faced a much stiffer test in the first round, as the had to\u00a0outlast the Unicorns in an overtime thriller.\u00a0 Superstar defender and polo shirt enthusiast Martin “Ocho Cinco” Cejka played the entire game, and he assisted on the game’s only goal.\u00a0 Goalie James Stein recorded the shutout after stopping a barrage of second half shots, when his team was beginning to tire.\u00a0 With the Corporation’s\u00a0fourth ranked offense poised to put a lot more pressure on Stein and his defense, the Sky Fighters will have to score more than one goal if they wish to advance to the semi-finals.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc. Polo shirts are the Corporation’s gimmick.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.\u00a0 Karsten continues his assault on opposing goalies.

\"Corlears<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

#4 Corlears Hookers (15-3-1-2) vs. #5 Filthy Gorgeous (16-5-1)<\/strong>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Corlears East, 12:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 4-0
\n2009 Result:<\/strong> Week 10 \u2013 Corlears Hookers 2, Filthy Gorgeous 1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This quarterfinal battle is a rematch from the 2008 BTSH semifinals, when the Corlears Hookers defeated Filthy Gorgeous 4-2 to advance to the championship game.\u00a0 The Hookers have controlled the series between these two teams, winning all four matchups, although none of their victories has been by more than a two-goal margin.\u00a0 Last week, they won another close game on the strength of Dustin “Fake Dutch’s Brother” Olson’s strong performance between the pipes.\u00a0\u00a0Although the Hookers offense was only able to record two goals against the inspired Tuques, Olson ensured the victory with a shutout.\u00a0 Filthy Gorgeous advanced to the quarterfinals in a similar fashion.\u00a0 Goaltender Dan “D.O.” Owens recorded a shutout of his own in the team’s opening round 4-0 victory over the Gouging Anklebiters.\u00a0 With leading scorer “Gentleman” James Pereira absent, Filthy’s second ranked offense was held in check until the closing minutes, when the team logged two empty net goals.\u00a0 With Olson and Owens both\u00a0playing at the top of their games, goals will be at a premium as these teams write the next chapter in their bitter rivalry.
\nEli\u2019s Pick: <\/strong>No pick.\u00a0 Eli will be reffing this game.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 Everyone knows they don’t lose until the championship game.
