Trophies for Season 2016

Another season has come to an end as finally all the results have come in and all places been decided. Let's start with Division 3:

New Hampshire was dominant throughout the year. While small as a team, they packed a punch with very strong players. As a result, a spotless win-out. Indiana and Utah went neck and neck. At the very end, Indiana caught up and tied Utah for second place.

In Division 2, Pennsylvania continued its march through the division. Having won Division 3 just a year ago as a newcomer, they also vanquished their opponents in Division 2. How will they fare in Division 1? New Mexico cemented its status as a team that will fight for top spot in Division 2. Unsurpringly, another strong performance and second place. Team Illinois did very well this season and accomplished its best result to date. Well done!

At last, Division 1. Washington State had its best performance in a long time, managing a spotless record even though Ontario put them to the test in their last round game. Iowa had a fantastic season. After being in the middle of the pack for many season, they broke out this year. It will be interesting to see whether they can go tops this year. Lastly, North Carolina reemerged as a contender with a surprise third place. Congratulations!

There is no doubt that this season the powers have been shifting. Congratulation to all winners!

As you are already aware, this season has new faces in the admin role. Hopefully, the teams will make it easy by timely accepting challenges and setting up the matches properly.

I like to thank everyone for all the patience with me throughout the years and look forward to enjoy the league from a participant perspective!

Cheers,
