Team History:
A group of Masters age players from Wilmington, NC and Central VA first came together in the Fall of 2001 and called themselves HOSS. Despite the fact that many of us met each other for the first time on the line at regionals, our belligerent bunch earned a trip to the National Championships. Only thirteen players made the trip and finished 12th overall. In 2002 HOSS became a bit stronger and finished 2nd in the region and 9th in the nation. In 2003, enthusiasm and expectations are at an all time high! Our grueling training regimen includes smoking no more than one pack a day and actively reminiscing about how good we were when we were young. As time passes-HOSStility grows.
