The challenge match that evening against Alabama Elite was a battle to the end. Borderline dropped both, 22-25 and 23-25, sending them to the silver bracket. The Hawks finished up on the 4th of July in third place of the silver bracket after taking out Texas Assault but falling to River City in three. The Hawks finished their magnificent season with 139 games won vs. 37 losses. This was a true testament to the dedication of the coaches and players. [tournament report]
