Blacklight Dodgeball (Pirate Pete Week)

By Zach Wakefield

The grand finale of Pirate Pete Week, blacklight dodgeball was the ultimate way for Pirates to show off their athletic skills while pummeling their peers into submission, all in a fantastic show of neon lights and nocturnal aesthetic. The spectacle gathered plenty of students Friday night as they all shuffled onto the bleachers awaiting the fury of florescent festivities. After explaining the rules and regulations, creating some team names and organizing into their respective teams, the players were ready to begin. Each team was guaranteed to play 3 rounds, with a decisive tourney choosing the final worthy victors. Neon tape lined the borders of play while flashy lights and blaring music created an energy that matched the game and energy of the other teams.
