Elite Eight Second Round, Games 3 & 4

First Matchup:

GPNB vs IVPF

Day two of the Elite Eight matchups continued today, starting with our GlovePlus bracket. #1 seed GlovePlus Black Nitrile (GPNB) was taking on #2 seed GlovePlus Powder-Free Vinyl (IVPF) in what looked to be an interesting game. While both gloves are Powder-Free and Industrial Grade, the top-selling vinyl IVPF was clearly intimidated by the GPNB’s Nitrile Durability and powerful presence. GPNB began the game running circles around IVPF, allowing the IVPF to only utilize their Lower Price towards the end of the game. In the end, GlovePlus Black Nitrile’s unique style and toughness triumphed making them the GlovePlus Bracket champions. They will be matched up against Ammex Powder-Free Nitrile in the Final Four tomorrow, March 29th.

Winner: GlovePlus Black Nitrile (GPNB)

Second Matchup:

ILHD vs INPF

Our final Elite Eight game matched up #1 seed Gloveworks HD Latex (ILHD) against #2 seed Gloveworks Powder-Free Nitrile (INPF). ILHD had a lot of pressure riding on them considering they are the last Latex team in the tournament. Their Heavy-Duty style had proved their supremacy over their latex foes, but they couldn’t simply rely on that going up against the seasoned veteran INPF. With their Nitrile Strength and less-volatile pricing, INPF came in strong and ready to take the bracket. Although ILHD had some fancy moves, establishing their superior Dexterity, INPF had the stronger defense and resistance. What looked to be a shoe-in for ILHD early on, Gloveworks Powder-Free Nitrile came back with a vengeance and for the upset. They will be going up against Xtreme Powder-Free Nitrile on Wednesday, March 30th in the Final Four.

Winner: Gloveworks Powder-Free Nitrile (INPF)
