By RYAN MURPHY [email protected]

With a spot in the Men’s Open A playoffs hanging in the balance, someone was about to be a hero. Meet Steve Waeghe. Waeghe intercepted a two-point conversion attempt by the Grenade Slayers’ Chase Wallace to give the Raw Doggers a 21- 20 win Monday at the Hawkeye Recreation Fields. “We needed a stop, and it was my time to come up big,” Waeghe said. Wallace said, “I saw my two tallest guys, and I was under pressure, so I just threw it up.” The interception by Waeghe came after the Slay- ers put together a furious rally in the game’s final two minutes.
