Men in Black, 2005
The Single sex nationals being held in Manchester was a chance not to be missed and a Lions and Mets based team entered for the first time.
For a bunch of rookies we did pretty well.
Beating the eventual winners on Day 1 was one highlight, but THE best game was the last one:
11-0 down in the bottom of the third we launched the 2 out rally of all time scoring 14 runs to take the lead and demoralise the opposition.
The stunned Solent Bhuoys managed only 1 run in the top of the 4th and then game was called giving us a 14-12 win.
Overall our record was 3 & 4, which was more than respectable - and not a first division player in sight...
