9PM: Sportslook (4-0) vs Blood, Sweat and Beers (3-1)
Sportslook remains undefeated on the season, and they did so without top scorer Andrew Cavanagh last week. They saw the return of Steve Christy and Bryan Acevedo catch fire. They will be a very tough team to beat in with the hopeful return of Cavanagh in Week 5.
