          2009 Benchwarmer Championships
          Two repeat division champions this year and two teams that never 
          before won a division square off for the 5th league title.  One 
          thing for sure, though, we'll have a brand new champion in 2009. 
            
          Ryan Conference: India (90-60) vs. Altoona (96-54) 
          In 2008, India made their first push into 2nd place and they went 
          even further in their fifth season with a division title.  They 
          won their division handily, while Altoona needed all of their 
          league-best 96 wins to pull away from New Jersey at the very end.  
          This is the second straight appearance here for them, and they look to 
          advance this time. 
            
          Season series: Tied 6-6

           Carlton Conference: Hawaii (81-69) vs. Aksarben (95-55) 
          Aksarben was division and conference champion last season and 
          repeated the first half of that this season.  Last year they 
          dropped the final series to South Philly, but want to make it all the 
          way in 2009.  After 2 finishes in 2nd place for the first 4 years 
          of the league, Hawaii has made the push for their first division 
          title.  They won 14 fewer games than Aksarben this season, but 
          their head-to-head results were nearly even. 
            
          Season series: Aksarben won 7 games to 5 
          League Power Index Rankings: Aksarben: 2  Hawaii: 5 
            
           
          BWB CHAMPIONSHIP : India vs. Aksarben 
          Not an unthinkable upset, but India got past the league's top team 
          to win their first conference crown.  Meanwhile, Aksarben makes 
          their second straight appearance in the league championship series.
