Each spring, Nationals hopefuls gather in Axton and pray for two things: for the weather to not get too biblical and for the rankings gods to grant them wins with big ol’ margins of victory. Unfortunately for them, those prayers fell on deaf ears on Saturday of Commonwealth Cup — the wind was the most fearsome defender at the fields and shorthanded teams had to muscle through games that went down to the wire. The result? Upsets aplenty (though one seed Tufts stayed clean) and a little more chaos thrown into the bid picture.
