The new intramural flag-football rankings are out, and there are a couple of minor changes from last week.

For the men’s open league, UISC remains in first after a dominating 66-point victory on Sunday. Purr-fection, which won in four overtimes, and Just the Tip, which lost, dropped from this weeks rankings.

Pup ’N’ Suds and the Lemon Party made their first appearances in the poll.

All of the teams in the top 10 have yet to be defeated.

A switch at the top of the women’s rankings should definitely spice up Recreational Services’ Game of the Week.

The match features undefeated and newly crowned No. 1 Blackout against the now second-ranked Show Stoppaz, which suffered its first loss last week in a short-handed effort.

The Show Stoppaz is the defending women’s champions, and the players hope to get back on track against a very formidable opponent in Blackout.

The two women’s teams hit the gridiron in a battle for first place on Sept. 27 at 3 p.m.

Blackout is also this week’s Champions Team of the Week, an honor that recognized Blackout for outstanding sportsmanship toward opponents and the officials.

The co-recreational league’s top five had no changes. Purple Nurple still leads the way, followed by Bisexual Chocolate. The two teams have dominated so far and are starting to separate themselves from the rest of the field.

Also, in one of the more jaw-dropping scores of the year, TTP beat Danger Zone, 112-0.

Recreational Services staff members said they are feeling better about most teams’ sportsmanship in week two. They are, however, encouraging teams to keep their manners, on and off the field.

Sportsmanship is a big part of intramurals, and department officials hope teams continue to display a positive attitude to one another and also toward the officials.

“We just need to make sure we’re staying on top of teams as far as sportsmanship goes,” associate director of Recreational Services Mike Widen said. “I appreciate all the work everybody is putting in.”

Free-throw shooting contest

Recreational Services is helping to put on a free-throw shooting contest the day of the Iowa-Michigan Homecoming game on Oct. 10.

A mini-basketball court will be placed at the Krause Family Plaza on the southern side of Kinnick Stadium.

Fans of all ages will be able to test out their shooting skills — even Michigan fans. Participants who are able to hit at least eight of 10 free throws will compete in the finals later that day with the winner receiving a championship T-shirt.

In addition, the Iowa men and women’s basketball teams will shoot around, meet and greet fans, and sign autographs.

The event is free and is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The time is subject to change.

“I think it will be a fun addition to tailgating this year,” Widen said.

Indoor volleyball

Recreational Services is eager for UI students to sign up for intramural indoor volleyball. There are plenty of registration sheets which can be found all around campus.

Registration will take place in E216 Field House from 1-5 p.m. on Oct. 12 and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Oct. 13.
