I'll give you a true answer now. We never played them in PAL, only tournaments. They are a good team,no question. The person who wrote the previous post doesn't seem to realize is people know the real good players and what towns they are from. Everybody knows the 5 sachem towns. I graduated from connetquot high school, I know sachem well. They had several, at least 4, kids outside those towns. Fact. Does this happen now,I don't know,but it did. Now to answer your question, my guess would be is that after they win, with the outside help and again we know those kids, some parents seem to brag about what a great town team they are.
