US Open Essentials

I don’t have time for a full report today but hopefully I’ll get that out tomorrow.  For now know this -

The US Open rocked!  Many thx to Chris Siebert, Ethan Red Husted, Kendall Kic, and their staff for putting together this event and being such great hosts.

Kenny Shults is back - again!  He defeated Jake Leong in the final of open singles.  He also won the open doubles net title with partner - Chaos #3 - El Presidente - PT Lovern.  They defeated Chaos #4, John Leys, and Chaos #5 Eric Wulff, in a roller coaster 3 game championship match (15-7, 11-15, 15-11).

ahem ~ 3 of the top 4 open doubles players are team Chaos ~ ahem Woo Hoo!  grin

The women are back!  Six of the all time greatest women net players were at the US Open to play in the mixed doubles, open doubles, and the women’s division.  How long has it been since Tricia George, Becca English-Ross, Jody Welch, Julie Symons, Lisa McDaniel, and Evanne ‘not registered at footbag.org’ Lamarche were on the same field for competition?  Here’s to hoping we’ll see them more often in the coming season.  Jody Welch and Julie Symons won the women’s title taking the final match over Becca English-Ross and Tricia George.

Tournament director Chris Siebert and Tricia George won the open mixed doubles title defeating Jody Welch and Eric Wulff (15-13, 15-7).

I’ll be back with more tomorrow including some pictures, honest cheese
