THESE HELD TO BE THE FOUNDING FATHERS OF THE SECOND DIVISION
Maj. D. Saster and PacMan were trained at Jurassic Park by Predator who had returned to the Coast from the Central Valley. He had started the Marauders as a five man team in Fresno, Ca. All three were involved in tactical studies for close to 20 years before they picked up paintball guns. Together the three of them formed the core of the team and the training principles still in use today. “The Major” designed and manufactured all the Marauder awards. PacMan made all the early maps and the graphics for the awards plus developed other Marauder Documents. Predator maintained the web site. PacMan has taken over the Web Master role since the passing of Predator.
It took 3 months of two on one playing before both PacMan and the Maj. could win consistently against two players. This gave them the skills it takes to be a paintball sniper and more than enough of those skills to play in squad action. Wizard Joined the team when there was only about 5 players. His zeal for the game attracted numerous players; especially after he went to work for J&S Surplus, the local paintball store. He supplied paintballs for players to buy on the field and was the team air smith. Within a short time Marauders would field up to 60 players on any given paintball Sunday.
