First Look: XSV shooting new paintball guns from ALIEN

March 1, 2010 in XSV

Check out the first look of XSV players shooting Aliens. Pro Paintball caught up with XSV’s Junior Brown who had this to say:

We have been testing the Alien Paintball gun for a few weeks now. This weekend was the first time all the players on the team have played with them and it was a good weekend to get the players thoughts as we played the Ironmen both days. Over the weekend I was asking all the players to give me feedback on the guns so we can work with Jack Rice the owner of Alien over the coming months, but all I was being told from them are they shoot flat with next to no kick and they are very happy.

Pro's return and More Roster Update's

March 30, 2009 in Aftermath, Ironmen, USPL, XSV

teams_xsvIn Division 2, Davis XSV will host a return of Ron Phipps and Micah McGlocklin to paintball. Ron Phipps has not played a paintball tournament since, forever? And it’s been over 2 years since Micah’s last event. Regardless of that, these guys have done it before, and surely they can do it again, in D2.

HKHKTravis Dusek previously commented on Bobby Aviles(Aftermath) teaming up with Phoenix United for USPL HB, sources have confirmed that this will not be taking place after all as Bobby will be playing alongside his close friends on Hollywood HK. HK has quite a stacked roster for this event including the talents of:

  • Mark Kressin
  • Scott Kressin
  • Kenny Rosenberg
  • Josh “Whisper” Minkowski
  • Alex “AROD” Savino
  • Bear Digidio
  • Bobby Aviles
  • Scott Kemp (Maybe)

Supposedly Dave Youngblood is not to thrilled on the idea that one of his players will be playing along side HK, and will not return calls on the subject. We’ll have to see if next weekend works out for HK. If not it will be a tremendous loss for the squad, as stacked as they are.

UPDATE: Gio Digidio and Billy Wing have confirmed that Scott Kemp will be playing with Hollywood HK in the USPL Huntington Beach event. Scott will be wearing head to toe Ironmen gear in order to avoid a breach of contract. Scott being a strong addition to the roster should help their chances toward a podium finish following their  win at NPPL San Diego.

HK saw the departure of Damian Ryan for 2009 due to monetary reasons. Damian’s requests could not be met as money is tight this season and the team as a whole could not afford it.

NOTES

Oakland Infamous are the defending champions.

The Bushwackers and Hurricanes are back in the PSP for 2009 after taking 2008 off.

Naughty Dogs made it to registration despite rumors of difficulty in securing sponsors.

Edmonton Impact also put their name down on the list ending speculation that they might not be playing in the PSP this year after being on the quiet side in the off season.

Avalance are not on the list. They only participated in 3 PSP Events last year and skipped out on the last event and the World Cup.

XSV will be playing in Semi-Pro which has only 5 other teams playing in a tight division along with 2008 Semi Pro Champions RNT All Stars and No.2 placed Vicious and 5th placed Palm Beach Vipers.
