Sugar River Euchre

The 88th Euchre league season came abruptly to an end for the Norsk Pranksters on March 21st, after they experienced a 24-point acceleration from the Harley Blue Express. With five lead changes, it would be an understatement to say this was a close match. After the first frame, the Pranksters were down by 2 points. By the end of the second frame they were up by 13. Then after six, with just two frames left, the score was tied.
