In the Open Division, the self proclaimed “Mystic Exiles” showed a vast improvement from the week prior, going 2-2 on the day. With 20+ years of age between the youngest rookie and the oldest grizzled veteran, the Mystics finished the day strong with a 29-0 “pay back” win over Worcester for 5th place.
