AMHERST – The Amigos won their first outright
title in 13 years with a sweep of Arizona and UConn in the Final Four. Last
shared title for the jumping beans was in 2019 where they shared a 3-way tie
with the Elders and Slayers.
All time championship statistics are listed
below as the Amigos moved up a spot in the all-time rankings after the 27th
annual Calcutta.
The Amigos were ablaze in Maize and Blue on
Monday night reveling in their 6-point win. Things got a little dusty up in
here as it was a long time coming and old teammate Bill the Cat had to be
looking down chugging a Labatt Blue in a beer sabre admiring on his homies.
The Bunch had to play leader in the clubhouse
and watch their lead evaporate after the UConn dagger sunk them in the Elite
Eight. Yet another fine showing from the Chieftans who stand proudly on top of
the heap in Calcutta lore. Their 16-win record withstood another Calcutta, in a year where they notched 4 second round wins to put them on the margin to the right.
The two top teams came in tied with the lowest
ASR at 8.25, just behind yours truly.
The Catholic Boyz finished third for the
second straight year and had a nice ride with Illinois but have the longest drought
for an outright winner – 2006. They last shared a title in 2018.
The longest overall drought, rivaling the NY Jets, is
the Counselors who haven’t won a title (shared or outright) since 2012.
The Elders have still never picked a national champ but have 5 titles to their name.
Was one of the more competitive Calcuttas, decided on Championship night. Thanks again for playing.
All winners have been Venmo'd.
See y'all next year!
