Bobcats Heading to World Series
The Cleveland Bobcats "proved we can handle pressure" by beating the League Championship Series and eliminating the Kansas City Bulls, according to series MVP Dwight Reppe.

"This is the big stage, we're off to the World Series and looking towards the World Series," he said. "There's a lot of pressure at this time of year and it's only going to get more intense from here. But I think we can handle it just fine."

Cleveland won the final game 2-1, to wrap up the series 4-1.

Reppe led his team to the series win by putting up a .312 average, with a .353 on-base percentage. He had 2 home runs, drove in 4 RBI and scored 3 runs.

The Cleveland Bobcats don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Boston Terriers - Dallas Wranglers series. Dallas leads the series 3 games to 1. The World Series schedule will be announced after the League Championship Series finishes.
