Apollo manage to top Berta 201.22-150.00 despite falling short of expectations

Both teams were unable to meet projections, but Apollo did enough to take down Berta, emerging victorious with a 201.22-150.00 win. Apollo earned an early 13.80-point lead on Thursday. Berta came back to take the lead early Sunday, powered by Robert Woods (12 points) and Demario Davis (12). Unphased, Apollo rallied later that afternoon, as Russell Wilson (23.32 points) and Bobby Wagner (21) put them back ahead once and for all. Apollo (2-0) will look to add to their success against drizz, while Berta (0-2) will face Axel in an effort to get back on track.

Coach Talk

Apollo
Mission accomplished, Apollo. Fielding a lineup that won by over 51 points this past matchup. Let's keep this momentum going as we roll into what's sure to be a particularly formidable Week 3 matchup.
Berta
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 34 times in Week 2. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they reeled in just 20 balls.
