PAST & FUTURE
What Just Happened? The Racine Erickson's Wrecking Crew competed in the Six Flags Great America May Madness Tournament from May 11-13. They went 0-4, losing 5-15 to Wind Lake Screaming Eagles, 1-7 to Pleasant Prairie Patriots, 2-4 to Wisconsin Rockhounds, and 4-9 to Wilmot Jr. Panthers. The team came off a week of poor effort and lazy pregame warmups, leading to the several whoopings experienced. The team did get better from game to game, and the best game played was Saturday night versus Wisconsin Rockhounds. The team will be better in the future thanks to the tough weekend.
What's Up Next? The Racine Erickson's Wrecking Crew are competing in their own tournament, Racine by the Lake Bash, on Saturday May 26 in Racine, WI. The team plays Wilmot Jr. Panthers and Cherry Valley.
