Conclusion

I have attempted to give a brief recap of each game played in this tournament.  I apologize in advance for any misspelled names or errors in stats as I hurriedly transcribed the statistics from the scoresheets.  This report is meant to be an overview of the tourney and not an instrument for ascertaining precise individual records.

Congratulations to the N. Lexington YMCA Blaze for winning the Division I championship and to the Somerset Shooters for capturing the Division II title.
