Carolina Underground Set For Queen City Masters CFOA on March 3rd

The Carolina Underground Paintball Team will be playing at the Queen City Masters 5-Man CFOA tournament on Sunday, March 3rd. This will be the team's first tournament as a team, and will serve as a good barometer of what to expect going forward.

As of right now, weather does not appear like it will be a problem, with temperatures projected in the mid 40's on Sunday. The Queen City Masters will be played at the Carolina Underground Paintball Team's homefield at PBC Rock Hill, SC.

Carolina Underground Teams Disappointed With Showing At Glory Road, Look To Bounce Back

Overcoming a day full of adversity, both Carolina Underground teams rallied late, winning 3 of their final 6 points at Glory Road's 3-man tournament series opener. Frustration was the theme of the day for both teams, as 25 degree weather claimed 5 of 8 markers the teams had at their disposal, resulting in the teams sharing 3 markers for most of the day.

Once Carolina Underground resolved their gun problems - ostensibly by changing paint and Justin Lamb lending Mason his Ego - they won 2 of their final 4 points, after having two players go down in each of their first three points without so much as a single drop of paint on them due to marker malfunctions.

Carolina Underground Red had a much tougher day; however, they came together late in their final two points, winning their second-to-last point. One of their key players, Slade Saunders, was injured in a car accident last night, and while he braved the elements, his back injury limited his and his team's effectiveness greatly.

Ultimately, both teams will compete in CFOA's 5-man series in 2013, in division 5, as a combined unit. The final team roster will be announced shortly.

Paintball Practice Videos From Our First Team Practice

Tom Mobley, Carolina Underground's founder, organized the first team practice for the team through PBNation, on Sunday, January 6. The practice was attended by Cujo, Jeff Payne, Drake Craven, Mason and of course, Tom's better half, his wife Talina who manned the camera.

Gun problems aside, we were able to play our first points together as a group and held our own at Glory Road Paintball.
