Von Alanguilan with a spectacular block
In the Program’s first national championship appearance, Machine staged an incredible comeback on the backs of defensive playmakers Von Alanguilan, Nate Goff, and Johnny Bansfield. On double game point, Sockeye held to put the game away.
Machine extends the warmest gratitude to our family, friends, and the entire Chicago Ultimate community, many of whom traveled to San Diego to create the rowdiest crowd in USAU history.
