Thanks 1678 and 5274 for playing with us in the elimination matches. 1678 put up some good points and 5274 played some wicked D. It takes a special alliance to break 200.

Team 1678 had a fun time at this event with a few ups and downs. Despite failing miserably in our penultimate qualification match, 971 still believed in us enough to pick us. Thank you for asking us to join your alliance. The elimination matches were a blast and 5274 played some stellar defense in the finals.

Thanks to all of the teams who competed so hard and especially to some of the perennial and emerging CA powerhouses (1323, 1671, 701, 2073 and 3250) who kept us all biting our nails to the end.

Finally, a huge shout out to Rookie All Star Award winner, team 5924, who came out looking like a seasoned veteran. I'm anticipating a great future from this awesome team.
