In Division Two Xball the season rankings title has been a three team race, with no one able to pull away. Camp Pendleton Raiders came into the event with wins in Las Vegas and Chicago but also had a 5th and 12th place showing in between. Louisville Xtreme made the finals three times in the first four events but had no wins. Preferred Mob won Texas and finished in third place in Chicago but they also had 11th and 9th place showings along the way. Ironically none of the top three teams made it as far as the semifinals. It was CEP, Noobies, TBD Jits and Gulf Coast Hurricanes that stole the show. In the end it would be Gulf Coast Hurricanes defeating TBD Jits 4-3 in the finals to claim first place. Noobies shut out CEP 5-0 to take third place. The Camp Pendleton Raiders did just enough to hang on to the Division Two rankings title, finishing 8 points ahead of Louisville Xtreme. 036 paintball.media magazine Division Three’s Baltimore Revo II has had a nice season coming into World Cup Their highest finish was 4th place and their lowest was 6th. Even without an event win they were still in solid position to win the season series title. But this is paintball and this is a competitive division and Revo II just had an off weekend at this year’s Cup. A 25th place finish in the 65 team division sunk their chances. That left the door wide open for Vintage and while they didn’t exactly dominate at the Cup, their 7th place finish was enough to push them to the top of the season leaderboard. When all was said and done it was Raw Material’s event as they beat TOG 3-2 to take first place at the Cup. With the win Raw Material climbed all the way to third place in the final division standings.
