There’s a new Ohio team in the works, and they look promising! Formerly called Moose Factory, the Walleyes are comprised of mostly NCPA players from the Ohio area, as well as some former TPA Redemption players. This new D3 X-ball team is looking to take the 2012 season by storm.
OHPaintball.com asked founder Jimmy Eckman a few questions about his new team: The Lake Erie Walleyes
Is Moose Factory no more?

In the past The University of Akron and paintball were two words that would not normally be seen in the same sentence, but determination and hard work has changed that. With their first full season ahead, The Paintball Club at The University of Akron is looking to make some major Read more
Great to see another team from Ohio make it to Sunday at the PSP World Cup. Cincinnati Paintball grabbed 5th place in D4 x-ball losing a close match to PG Rise 1-3. Bryan Baker, Aaron Bennington, Josh Ehling, David Goodwin, Matt Greene, Anthony Hicks, Jon Howard, and Eric LeBlanc of Xscape all played great and just missed the podium. Would have been great to see Cincinnati Paintball VS Imperial in the finals!
Captain Nate Lelle, Shane Bergoch, Dany Paul, John Bartolone, Brandon Ribblett, Cody Shook, Chad Engel, Steve Vanderwist, and Joe Heppner all lived up to their reputations as a prominent D4 X-ball team at the PSP World Cup this past weekend.
After breezing through the prelims.. and ochos.. quarters.. Imperial finally met their match in D4 X-ball, Revo2. In a very close match, Revo2 never dominated Imperial. They played well, however, went up on points and never let Imperial come back. Revo2 knocked out Imperial 2-0 in the Semis.
Revo2 would go on to win the event, and Imperial still hit the podium with a 3rd place finish. Great job boys, way to represent Ohio Paintball. The only questions is, will Imperial play D3 next year? I hope so..
Team Pinnacle Woods has been trying to put together a dominating Ohio Paintball team since the early 2000′s when they were all over the professional paintball circuit. Their newest group of young ballers is attempting to make a name for themselves this year at the NPPL World Championships in Las Vegas this November. Captained by Steve Pisek of the Pinnacle Woods family of Piseks, this team definitely has experience on it’s side. Team Pinnacle Woods will be competing in D3 7-Man.
Good luck boys!
