Coming off an extremely successful 6-1 regu- lar season. Trinity was seeded 2nd going into the tournament. The prob- lems began early for the Ducks, however, as they were unexpectedly put in the same bracket as lust year's runner up. Colby College. Captain Alex Paidas explained why this was a disappointment: "According to the seeding at the end of the season we were expecting to see Bates in the semifinal, a team we had beaten 22-10 during the regular season. All the tournament games are played in one day. so fatigue is a major factor. We figured that Bridgewater (the #1 seed) would have a tougher game against Colby, and we would come into the final a little fresher having played Bates." However, at the last minute Colby requested to switch with Bates, their reason being that they would be unable to get into the pool in time for their first game. "The Tournament Committee O.K.'d it despite our protests, " added Paidas, "we kind of felt that if we could drive five hours to get here, Colby could get up a half hour earlier, but since they had the same record as Bates, it could have gone either way. It was just tough getting all geared up to play Bates and then find out the night before that we were playing Colby." Trinity's first round game was closer that the Ducks expected, as a tenacious Holy Cross team kept the game close until the final buzzer. The Ducks never gave up the lead, however, and won 10-9. Colby breezed by WPI in their first game, setting the stage for the Trinity-Colby semifinal. The Ducks came out playing their best polo of the season, and by the end of the first quarter they were up 3-0, behind goals by Ted "Mad Dog" Foss and hole man Roberto Sifuentes. In the middle of the 2nd quarter, hole guard Loren Strand was forced to leave the game after committing 3 personal fouls, but at the half. Trinity still held a4-2 lead. In the 3rd quarter, Captain Chris Coxon fouled out of the game as well, and Colby took the lead for the first time. With two of the Duck's veterans on the sidelines, things looked grim as the seconds ticked away in the fourth quarter. Colby was up by 2 goals until Sifuentes scored with 2:00 left. Trinity then forced a Colby turnover, and freshman wing Dave Shapiro sent the game into overtime with a goal in the final :30 of the Tinabeth Passaro (6) advances the ball while Mary Beth Madarasz looks on.
