Brookfield Takes 2nd Place at Lakefront 7s

The Bruisers had a bruising weekend, as 8 of its finest, battled through the Lakefront 7's bracket against St. Charles, Il and two squads from Vernon. The Bruisers defeated Vernon 1 in the opening match, but suffered an injury in the final minute as the match ended. Brookfield, now out of substitutes, put up a stiff resistance against Vernon's second side, but suffered a second injury, and played with a 6 person side. But even out numbered, Brookfield rallied to put points on the board during its loss to Vernon 2. In the final match, Brookfield faced a fresh and fit St. Charles team which swept the competition.

The final results came out today and Brookfield took second place, with it's 1-2 record, based on point differentials! Go Bruisers!
