2009 Tournament a) Happened, b) Was Amazing!

After a one-week delay due to rain, we would not be deterred by a little snow and cold weather. With the courts dry by game-time and temperatures in the 30's, the 2009 State Championship commenced.

After a thrilling and surprise-filled preliminary round, a Turkey Shoot was necessary to determine the final four. If the semi-finals were dramatic and engaging, then there are no words to describe the championship match between Mark and Ron. Playing to 75, the lead switched (as per the hammer) in every single one of the first eight frames. Ron put Mark away for good after a few frames on the right side of the board -- with Ron taking the title in only his first year of play.

What a DAY!

See you all next year if not in the off-season.
