Okapi Puts Pressure on Orlando
Okapi Puts Pressure on Orlando
The Okapi Wanderers defeated Key Biscayne 10-5 Wednesday night in a makeup game, and that result has important playoff ramifications in Florida Youth Rugby's Boys DI league
Key Biscayne needed the win to keep pace with the Orlando Griffins and potentially get a spot in the Cup Semifinals. Because of the loss, Okapi jumps to 5th, and this now sets up the question as to whether another weather delay comes into play. Orlando and Okapi were rained out April 2, and should Orlando lose to Tampa Krewe on Saturday, that Okapi-v-Orlando game will be needed to decide the 4th seed into the Cup Semis.
Meanwhile, Key Biscayne is solidly in the Plate competition with Cape Pirates and, most likely, Daytona.
Here's the video of the Okapi v Key Biscayne game.
