2009 BSL Cup Champions

Congratulations to Montgomery County for winning the 2009 BSL Cup! After qualifying to the playoffs on the last game of the season by just 1 point over the 4th place team, the Monarchs are league champs. David, the team's operator, made the moves worthy of being a champion. While Montgomery County got off to a great start in the season, it was not without a lack of drama. The team went through a spell where it needed several come-from-behind weekends just to earn a tie in the standings. Then in July the club hit a snag that dropped it all the way from first to fourth place. Then a few weeks later the team lost Kenny Cooper from its line-up in an overseas deal, but with some fine adjustments and maybe a little luck, the Monarchs finished the regular season off right and followed that momentum into the playoffs.
The champ will now have plenty of time to think about how to defend his title . The Monarchs did not qualify for the Majors Cup.

    Wow, not at all how I thought this would go down. Unbelievable.

    Thanks to the both of you. This was a hell of a season, and CDG you certainly can bost a claim for the best team in the league.

    I look forward to watching how the Majors Cup goes now, I think all four of you involved have a VERY good shot at making it an "All BSL" fight.

    I am not shocked that you won, you have a good team and thought either one of you could win. I am amazed about the goose egg.

    Congrats Champs.
