Zip ‘Em Up’s journey begins (and perhaps ends) with a showdown against the alumni team representing THE Ohio University, Ohio 1804. 1804 was the year the university was founded and also the year during which the Aaron Burr/Alexander Hamilton duel took place, although the events are likely not linked in any meaningful way. 1804 boasts a similar roster composition to Zip ‘Em Up in that it is made mostly, but not entirely, of players from the school which lends the team their name.
