Grape, Cherry to Nuka Series
The Grape Painted Ghouls and the Cherry Ghoulrillas are division champions in 2315 and will face off in the Nuka Series starting on Saturday. The Ghoulrillas will host the first two games.
Cherry had to overcome a South Bradberton Division deficit to Orange to win the division by two games. This marks the Ghoulrillas' fourth-straight division title and ninth overall. They have previously won the Nuka Series four times: 2303, 2306, 2307, and 2312.
The Painted Ghouls won the North Bradberton Division by a game over Quantum. It is the first time Grape has won their division since 2307 and the third time in team history. Their lone Nuka Series title came in 2301 as the runners-up to Orange when there was only one division. The Painted Ghouls won the series over the Tourists, 4-3, that season.
The APL also closed out its season yesterday, though neither the North nor South divisions were close. The Red Rocket Radrats secure the best overall record at 38-22, seven games up on both the Nuka Jolly Elves and Nuka Bottling Plant Pack. In the South, the Grandchester Flying Ants won the division by six games over the Nuka Plant Electrics.
