Week Five Player
Reports
Mark Koll: Fresh
off his honeymoon, Mark did not play his best game against a
well-balanced Team
Orange. While he still scored 28 points,
it took him a lot of shots to get there, and even worse, he missed
several easy
opportunities that he usually converts.
Team Dark Blue looks like a lot different without their
Luke-A-Like
looking like Luke out there. Team
What's Next: Mark gets a fast turnaround against Team Light Green in Week Six.

Matt Koll: Matt
Koll looked dominant in Week Five without
his wingman
Jerry. He rebounded and controlled the
tempo en route to an easy win. Both
teams were short important pieces, but that makes these games even more
important. In a year where there is more
team parity than ever, playoff seeding will be critical.
A BYE is everything. Light Green
seems capable of getting one of
the two first-round BYEs, but that will
require Matt Koll stepping up every week.
What's Next: Matt Koll takes on his more handsome brother in a Koll showdown in Week Six.

Matt Vitaliano: Matt
V is always good for a couple 20+ point games a season and chose an
excellent
time to drop one against Team Dark Blue in Week Five.
He scored 21 points on 7 longballs. Some may look at his stat line and think,
"what a wastoid.
He does nothing but shoot threes."
But that type of shot making is critical in HatchetBall. Not only does it put pressure on the other
team by putting points on the board, it also spreads the defense out,
which was
hugely helpful to Rob and Big Baby Danaher, who feasted in the paint in
the
second half. Matt V's sharpshooting
helped make that possible.

Rob Knapczyk: What's
all that about a knee injury? Rob has
had to transform his game some from the aggressive slasher
he used to be, but his production is as good as ever.
Rob put up 38 points for the second week in a
row as Team Orange cruised to an easy win.
Most importantly, Rob is scoring in a variety of ways. He's making his outside shots, but he's also
mixing it up on the offensive glass, getting out on the break, and
finishing
hard on his drives to the hoop. Also,
Rob leads HatchetBall in free throw
attempts, which
is always the sign of a great scorer.

Mike Steigerwald:
Mike got a heavy dose of reality in Week Five playing without his
male
escort Luke. While Mike still put up a big-time 28 points, he had to
work hard
to get there. As HatchetBall
becomes deeper, it will be essential to have two offensive playmakers
on your
team. Luke, while not expert at any one
particular thing, plays hard and involves himself on almost every
possession,
either by passing or screening to get other people open.
Without Luke, Mike had to resort to several
one on one plays to get his points. This
is not a good way to operate and Team Red lost by a wide margin because
of it.
What's
Next: Mike will be paired back up with Luke the Facilitator in Week
Seven
against Team Yellow.

Mike Davis: Mike continued his rebounding dominance in Week Five, pulling down a season best 22. However, he had those 22 rebounds locked up with 4 minutes to go in regulation, just 1 shy of the all-time record of 23 (held by Matt Koll). And even though the game would go into overtime, Mike couldn't record even one more rebound. What a waste. However, rebounding at the clip he is, Mike will shatter the single season record and will likely break Matt Koll's single game record before long. If only he knew how to make a layup...
What's
Next: Light Blue will get a good opportunity to snag their second
win against
Team Yellow in Week Six.

Mark Vitaliano: Mark
struggled in Week Five, finishing with only 12 points and five rebounds. Whether he likes it or not, Mark is the best
offensive weapon Light Blue has. he'll have to score somewhere around 20 points a
game if
they want to string together some W's.
What's
Next: Light Blue will look to improve upon their 1-3 record in Week
Six
against the lowly Team Yellow.
