LA Pama Cyclones - Three-Peat

Three-Peat

Pama made history at the 2007 NARCh WinterNationals as they won their 3rd straight NARCh Pro title, tying the record for most all-time. LA was playing without star player Itan Chavira, but picked up California superstar Mishka Drury to replace him. They were also led by the play of JP Beilsten, who defected from the Mudcats.
The Cyclones earned victories in round robin against Mission Arizona Strike and the Mission Habs. Their 2 toughest games, against rivals Tour Mudcats and Mission Snipers, both ended in 6-6 ties. But Pama's record was good enough to earn them a spot in the Championship Game for yet another rematch against Tour Mudcats.
After falling behind 1-0 early on, Beilsten tied it up for Pama and Josh Milewski added a shorthanded marker to give the Cyclones a 2-1 lead at the half. Gerry Osterkamp was clutch again for Pama as he tied the game up at 3 with just under 12 minutes left in the game. But the Mudcats wouldn't let up and they took a 4-3 lead late in the game. It was former Mudcat Beilsten who stole the Pro Championship out from under the Mudcats' noses as he tied the game at 4 with 3:12 remaining. The game went into Overtime and, yet again, the extra time didn't mean good things for the Mudcats. Defensemen Zach Walthers scored the game winner after more than 5 minutes of sudden death play, earning Pama its 3rd Pro Championship and extending their NARCh unbeaten streak to 14 games.
