We are now announcing our final batch of Player Of The Week award winners for the Fall 2017 regular season!
Our Player Of The Week for Week 7 is Ken Martin of Wink Wink Nudge Nudge! Ken went a perfect four for four in his team’s home loss against Slingshot Through The Heart. His night started on Star Wars, where he and Patrick DeGiovanni defeated Sue Brown and Burt Gorski to get his team’s first points of the night. He then took two singles victories against Jon Jacob, first on Game of Thrones and then on Star Wars. He finished the night with another doubles victory on The Walking Dead with Phil Hunt against Kathy DeBoer and Autumn King. This is Ken’s first Player Of The Week award, and also the first Player Of The Week award won by Wink Wink Nudge Nudge.
Our Player Of The Week for Week 8 is Mathew Peterson of Tiger Balls! Mathew went two for three in his team’s victory at Quarterworld Arcade against the Quarter Rollers. His two wins came in the singles rounds, first against Sarah Poole on Batman ’66 and then against Eric Zounes on Tommy. This is Mathew’s second Player Of The Week award, and the first for Tiger Balls since Mathew last won it in Week 10 of the Spring 2017 season.
Our Player Of The Week for Week 9 is Jonathan Illig of Pinball Outreach Project! Jonathan went three for three in his team’s victory of Clinton Street Pub FC at POP, and all three wins came on Nip It. The first two came in the singles rounds, first against Noah Perkins and then against Jeff Hart. The third victory came in the final doubles round, where he along with Sara Urban took down Jeff Hart and Zoe Winter. This is Jonathan’s first Player Of The Week award and the fourth this season for POP.
Finally, our Player Of The Week for Week 10 is Leslie Martin of the QuarterPounders (With Cheese)! Leslie went two for two in her team’s victory over Pinball Outreach Project at Quarterworld Arcade this past Sunday. Leslie and Bill Lascher scored the first two points for their team with a doubles victory on Attack From Mars against Thomas Urban and Lonnie Carroll, then she followed that up with a victory over Colin Urban in the second round of singles on Revenge From Mars. This is Leslie’s second Player Of The Week award, and the first for the QuarterPounders since Leslie last won the award in Week 5 last season.
Congratulations to Ken, Mathew, Jonathan, and Leslie!
