MISFITS CLASSIC ROSTER Matt Davis, Matthew MB Bawden, Emanuele Capodeici, Craig Baksa, Rocky Cagnoni, Ronnie Simpkins, Archie Brown, Phil Tuttle, Matt Helgeson, Mike Green, Billy (Trucker) Robertson, Keith (Barney) Roll, Mike Michaud, Mike Demontigny The Misfits are team made up of players that have been around for decades, playing on teams like Jax Warriors, Team Xtreme, Nemesis, Aftershock, OBR and of course the Misfits and others you’d probably know. Although most members of the team retired from competitive paintball in the early to mid-2000s, they got back together to play the Southern Open Ten-Man Classic in 2017. From Misfits’ captain Matt Davis, “For the majority of us it was the first time we played together on the same team and we barely missed the cut at fifth place. Actually, it is worse than that. Had we had an extra ten seconds in one game, the whistle would have blown after we hung the flag...and we would have been in 4th place.” Davis continued, “We are a band of misfits—people from all walks of life with a competitive urge to play paintball. We 0104 paintball.media magazine probably don’t like you. You probably don’t like us. Hell, we don’t even really like each other. What we do like is playing paintball together. There are no egos on the team. The majority of us have stood on top of the podium many times. We don’t have anything to prove...except that we can do this again and do it our way!” The Misfits call Paintball Atlanta their home field and they’ll be practicing against teams like Fight Club, Gridlock, Doc’s Warriors and the Annihilators in preparation for the 2019 ICPL season.
