Conclusion
Congratulations to Wayne County on capturing the championship. There were some excellent teams here this week that were capable of capturing the championship. There were also several players here this week who appear to be destined for future stardom.
I have attempted to give a brief recap of each game played in this tournament. The statistics and scores came from scoresheets captured after each game. I apologize for any errors or misspelled names. These numbers should not be considered official but should be relatively close and an indicator of each game and the tournament overview.
