Arocena Cup Update

So some updates for the Arocena Cup.

In Block 1:
After marking the last two tests and a game of Ultimate frisbee, Team Odds earns a 2 point lead over Team Evens at 16 to 14 and secures the Arocena Cup for block 1.

In Block 2:
Team Evens clinches the victory with an amazing 12 to 6 score.

In Block 3:
Team Odds has a 3 point lead over Team Evens with a score of 10 - 7. There are two more things to do to earn points so Evens may yet pull a victory but it seems very unlikely.

In Block 4:
Both teams are tied at 7 points a piece. The winner of the mousetrap car race on Monday will be the winner of the cup in Block 4.
