Cincinnati & Naptown Set New WFTDA Records
Posted by Justice Feelgood Marshall on 24th March 2008
No details on quite how this went down yet, but it looks like last Saturday’s bout between unranked Cincinnati and unranked Naptown set a new record for the lowest total score ever in a WFTDA-regulation bout — Cincinnati won 59-32. That total score of 91 slides in comfortably below the previous low of 111, set in December 2007 when Minnesota defeated Arizona by a final of 87-24.
Cincinnati’s 59 points also set a record for the lowest score by a winning team in a WFTDA-regulation bout … previously, that record had been held by Philly’s 62-56 defeat of Bay Area in November 2007.
(And if you’re wondering, no, I didn’t know that off the top of my head — let us all bow in supplication to the stats geeks over at Flat Track Stats, who have created a wonderful database tool with which we can all nerd out for hours on end. If you have not yet checked out that site, I must urge you to do so at your earliest convenience.)
UPDATE: Professor Murder has some interesting stats in the comments — including the fact that the third period was Cincinnati 10, Naptown 8!
UPDATE 2: Here’s some bout footage shot by Cincinnati’s Miss Print for Cincinnati.com, and absolutely do not miss the last third of this video podcast by Doing Indy — unquestionably some of the best-edited derby footage we’ve ever seen.
