Awesome Joe's Gym came out on top in GHC first intramural dodgeball competition on March 3.

Thirty people showed up, either participating or just watching, as participants were split into four teams: the Bashers, Girl Scouts, Beatles and Awesome Joe's Gym.

Each week every team will play three matches against the other teams, and the two teams with the best record for the day will square off in a daily championship match.

The weekly winner gets 10 points and the second place team gets 5 points.

The points will be tallied up at the end of the season and the team with the most points total will be crowned champion.

The Beatles were the only winless team for the day, and their struggles were summed up by team member Thuc Doan, who said, "Speed is nothing when it comes to dodgeball."

Girl Scouts team member Luke Allmon, excited about his team's one win performance, said, "Dodgeball is an amazing sport!"

The daily championship game was played between Joe's Gym and The Bashers. This was a very intense contest with Joe's Gym, led by Josh Underwood, coming out victorious.

Underwood said, "Out of all the intramural sports, this is probably the most unique and challenging."

Games will be played at 1:30 on Mondays in the gymnasium.
