We're ready to go on another day with six games in the competition. First up...
Humanity Senior 1 plays their second game, acting as host to the coalition OCOUENT.

Kayla had a very steady swing for HS1, slapping 439 on their opening turn to establish the lead. Salmo shot back with 343 for OCOUENT, which wasn't enough for them to cover the deficit.

Yekaterina delivered 521 on a high pace for HS1, boosting their lead again. Shiny had a false start, and then made only 239 for OCOUENT, a disappointing turn from the veteran.

Shawn covered that with 310 for HS1, capping their win at 3295. HS1 is 2-0 on the competition, firmly leading Group A now.
In Group B play, Reality faces another stern test from the Outcast team. Violetta cranked out 558 for Outcast in a productive first turn, overcoming her own slow start. Patches flipped 353 for Reality on their first turn, causing them to be behind initially. Josie looked good at first for Outcast, but a heavy swing that went high cut her down at 292. Spice flicked 490 for Reality, doing just what she wanted to do to make things close after the first two turns. Klaus fell into the same trap as Josie, falling with 245 after a firm hit went too high, which craters Outcast's lead. Dusty pounded 532 for Reality, narrowly avoiding an early exit with good bat skills. Potter fell with 279 for Outcast, failing to provide much of a response. Puff II finished with a bad swing, but collected 475 over the rest of the turn to add a little more to the Reality lead. Prism rolled 249 for Outcast, keeping with their recent trend of disappointing offense. Missy covered it with 344 for Reality, maintaining their lead despite the rougher turn. Summer bowed out at a measly 32 for Outcast, clipping the boundary very early in her turn. Twilight used the free turn to good effect, tacking on 447 for Reality this time. Kodiak put up only 100 for Outcast, furthering their disadvantage late in the game. Twinkie I took few risks in gathering 490 for Reality, padding their lead with another steady turn. Nibbles didn't do poorly relative to the rest of Outcast, his 346 leaving them in a loss at 2101. Stinky chipped a reasonable 360 at the end, icing Reality's win at 3491. Reality is up to 2-0 atop the group.
Along to Group C, where Oriental United tries to even their record against Humanity Senior's second team. Gabe disappointed for HS2 on the first turn, skying a ball to end at a pathetic 32 points. Goldy tapped 326 for OU, a solid but uninspiring start for the acting hosts. Bryant answered with 547 for HS2, a much more impressive attack that helps them cover the deficit. Stealth stumbled with 162 for OU, causing them to fall behind at the quarter pole of the game. Niki answered with 355 for HS2, padding their lead a bit with the solid performance. Panda fired back with 377 for OU, making minimal progress against the deficit. Jasmine drilled 480 for HS2, continuing to build a strong attack for her team. Sparkles fought back with 520 for OU, cutting into the deficit again despite the narrow margins in recent turns. Nicole stumbled completely with 85 for HS2, giving them a very weak lead now. Shelley took 397 for OU in response, pulling her side ahead for the first time since turn one. A. Charlton fell at 164 for HS2, their lack of depth offense showing late in the game. Mams put up a middling 249 for OU, leaving the door slightly ajar for the opposition to attack. Lexi rattled off 705 for HS2, pulling them ahead again with a noticeable lead. Paps replied with 515 for OU, restoring a lead for them in a game that will be decided on the last turn. Beth hit only 200 for HS2, leaving them at 2568, which is likely not enough. Wild Thing left no doubt with 357 for OU, sending them to the win on a total of 2903. OU is now 1-1, keeping themselves in the fight for the group.
Humanity Junior will play their second Group D game, facing the Reality/Humanity Junior coalition team that will only have two HJ players active. Twinkie II got off to a solid start for REAHJ, producing 330 to begin the scoring. Andrew had the right idea with his swings, but a vertical hit ended his turn early at 276 for HJ. Gizmo slipped at 112 for REAHJ, weakening their initial lead. Stephanie had a hard swing and managed 324 for HJ to give them a lead at the quarter mark. Puff I couldn't create a breakout attack, ending at 319 for REAHJ to challenge the opposition. Jason N. shot back with 432 for HJ, pushing their lead a little higher with the bold turn. Sugar found a productive groove and rode it to 774 for REAHJ, making a game of things again. Sydney C. blocked a swing off her own hand, ending at 272 as HJ finds themselves behind now. Bear had a chance to make an attack, but two bad swings unsettled him, and he ended at 176 to leave REAHJ vulnerable again. Briana crushed 1203 for HJ, surging her team ahead with the thundering attack. Hannah tried to reply against her usual teammate, but ended at just 64 as REAHJ's deficit continues to grow.

Jason V. exited with 167 for HJ, capping their win at 3344. Humanity Junior has evened their record after a setback yesterday.
Brute Force looked good but fell short yesterday, and now take on a fresh Celebrity team. Lorde raked in 562 for Celebrity, a fantastic start for the quietly confident lead-off hitter. Cleo replied with 321 for Brute Force, bobbling a swing late in her turn to force herself out of action. Sydney S. wrapped her bat around 702 for Celebrity on the second attack, boosting their lead. Americus poked a ball too high for Brute Force, exiting at 256 in a disappointing turn. Debby destabilized the Celebrity lead with a paltry 81, one bad swing causing an early exit. Juno slammed 443 with good pace for Brute Force, doing what she could to cut into their deficit. Pauline covered the damage with 616 for Celebrity, providing exactly what they needed to strengthen their lead. Nightfur went for a big swing and missed late in her turn, giving her 425 to add to the Brute force offense. Charli started off alright, but some bad swings ground her pace down until she left at 241 for Celebrity. Leandra carved out 532 for Brute Force, chopping some of the deficit away. Mario collapsed at 205 for Celebrity, another turn that weakens their lead. Princess wasted the chance to catch up with a pitiful 45 for Brute Force. Daisy flipped 295 for Celebrity on her turn, adding to their lead just a little more. Pedey got a little bit back with 313 for Brute Force, but they'll need a massive attack to save this game on the last turn. Taylor S. unleashed 1007 for Celebrity, anchoring their final score at a massive 3709. Dominic bounced 330 for Brute Force, giving their club a second loss at 2665. Celebrity leads Group E on a points advantage.

Cowzart struggled for BFFSCENT with only 177 this time, giving them a deficit to work out of. Gal took over the CELYM team lead on offense with 537, a firm attack from the likable sophomore. Strawberry fired back with 619 for BFFSCENT, covering the second-turn damage. Peach had an awful start for CELYM, skying a ball to end at just a meager 16. Cubby swung for 471 for BFFSCENT, capitalizing on their opponent's mistake to take the lead three turns in. Taylor M. matched it with 471 for CELYM, keeping the two-club coalition in the fight.
