SOM 7 24 Point Night

Two weeks away from the Man competition and it had the remaining challengers itching for a battle. I say remaining because SOM 2011 has encountered it's first dropout.

Introducing Man Challenge Roadkill #1: Jeff Takahashi.

But come on....it was just a matter of time. The newbie (and youngest of the challengers) was a stretch at best to finish high in the competition to begin with. SOM is not for the lukewarm, weak or flaky. It takes commitment, passion and dedication. It's not wonder that people drop out each year. If it were easy everyone would do it is my mantra when it comes to running marathons and this motto naturally fits with SOM as well. Certain competitors have likened Summer of Man to a job and I would tend to agree with that comparison. Although it kicks way more ass than any job I've ever had. Pay me to compete weekly with my closest friends in a various array of challenges and then write about it. Please. I'd do that job any day of the week. And I do. Which cannot be said of one Jeff Takahashi. SOM ended up being too much for the kid. Too much time, too much commitment, too much competition. It's hard not being the best at something and SOM will frustrate as much as it inspires.

It will be sad to lose a competitor, but when it's all said and done there's no room for boys in a man challenge.

Two weeks of down time eats at you a bit. Looking back on last summer, we didn't have the luxury of time off. It was balls to wall every week for the entire summer. We started on March 29th and by July 25th we had burned through 50 events. Competition raged bi (and sometimes tri weekly) last year. This year we've eased up a bit on our scheduling, realizing the benefit found in stretching it out. It's the journey not the destination. At this rate, we're looking at SOM lasting into mid to late August and maybe later. Ideally if we could, I would have YOM with competitions continuing throughout the year, but the body and the mind need the rest. The two weeks in between Arcade Night and the now traditional three event night was the window for that rest. And just when you thought a little time away from the man challenge would be good, I'll be damned if I didn't find myself looking forward to it more and more. I also had a little added motivation to get back into the challenges. The yellow last place High School Musical bracelet on my right wrist was getting heavy. After a poor performance at the arcade, I found myself sporting the turd jewelry for two consecutive events (almost 2 and a half weeks). That's a long time to have a band around your wrist supporting a terribly gay tweener musical. I was stoked when April 26th rolled around and the possible 24 points up for grabs. Oh how soon that would change.

The three event night consists of the Holy Trinity of Awesomeness. 36 holes of mini golf followed by a pool tournament, capped off with a game of darts. Del Mar to Society to The Fox. A great night any way you cut it. Win all three and you're looking at 24 points in the bank; lose all three and you may find yourself looking up from a very deep, dark hole.

Ladies and Gents...welcome to my hole.

Del Mar Pelly's Surfin' Safari and Ocean Adventure Put Put Golf Course is the Augusta National of the Mini Golf world. With water spouting whales and trick shots that make Torrey Pines South Course look like a walk in the park, there is no better battleground than Pelly's 36 nightmarish holes.

To the BayHorse, it was more dream than nightmare though. With his unconventional one hand putting technique and a belly full of Fireball, Sean went on a tear, acing 7 holes on his way to a 4 under par performance. It was a more dominant display of mini greatness than Bing's 3 ace, 1 under par game from SOM 2010. Bing didn't defend his mini title, but he didn't fall far either. On the 36th hole, Jantz gambled and lost and with a Bing lay up, he clinched the second spot which is not bad for the self proclaimed "World's Greatest Putter." Couls' 4th place finish wasn't great, but it was enough for him to retain the first place watch for yet another challenge. A tie between Johnson and zVirus came down to the final hole where a disasterous decision made by the reigning last place man resulted in another last place finish. Compared to last year, Bing shot a 87 to win it so we keep the tradition going that overall, 2011 has been a more competitive year than '10.

When it was all said and done, the Mini Golf results:

1st Sean....Front 18--40 Back 46---Total 86....5 Hole in Ones!!!!

2nd Bing....Front--44 Back 44---Total 88

3rd Jantz....Front--44 Back 45---Total 89

4th Couls...Front--53 Back 45--Total 98

5th Johnson...Front--57 Back 50--Total 107

6th Zach....Front--54 Back 54--Total 108

DQ Peter (a last minute conference call impeded the Pistol, causing him to miss his second straight mini golf round)

The caravan then moved back local to PB, where The Society Pool Hall was waiting to host the second leg of our epic night. With Too Tall Jones with the Boobs serving up the cocktails and two tables locked down for a couple hours, we began the process of completing a double elimination head to head pool tourney. If you've never done this before, beware. It takes a lot of time. Two play in games for a bye and a loser's bracket makes for a long night of comp. If you lose your concentration, it could prove costly. After a couple beverages and a little light hearted flirting with Too Tall, I found myself at the bottom of the heap once again. I had lost the eye of the tiger and with it any hope of getting the turd jewelry off my wrist.

In the end Pool Standings:

1st Jantz

2nd Johnson

3rd Bing

4th Couls

5th Sean

6th Zach

DQ Peter (absolutely no reason for a no show...the call was made, but no attempt to come play pool by the Pistol gives him a second straight zero on the night. Sidenote: the 24 point night marked the anniversary of the GWH's bitch out from the Man Challenge a year ago)

And then I got to be honest with you...the scores I remember from this point on is Grateful Deads 2, Jack and Gingers 9, Zach 0.

Apparently darts were played or an attempt at darts were played in Bing's garage. Jantz scaled my ex girlfriends wall to do what we don't know? He did make it clear that it was ok because he was a fireman. Darts were broken, lost, thrown into the alley. It was a bad beat all around. All I know is that in the end darts were cancelled and pushed back due to a black out. It was the Man version of a rain out in baseball.

SOM 6 Arcade Night

Going into SOM 6 Arcade Night the standings are:

couls 38
bing 30.5
pete 30.5
jantz 27.5
sean 27
jeff 24
johnson 20
zach 17.5

Arcade Night is broken down into the classic three: Pop a Shot, Air Hockey and Skee Ball. We had the intention of throwing Shuffleboard in there, but decided that shuffle would take too long and can stand on it's own as a challenge.

Skee Ball

The quintessential arcade game and the traditional kick off to our night. I wish I had the scorecard to see if Ball was more or less competitive than last year but unfortunately like many things that were lost when the Apocalypse happened, the score sheet was one of them.

1st Couls

2nd Sean

3rd Pete

4th Bing

5th Jantz

6th Jeff

7th Johnson

8th Zach

Pop a Shot

Jantz defends his title and proves he his only good at basketball when the hoop is five feet away, six feet off the ground and surrounded by a cage. This challenge included a rare three way tie that ended up going into double overtime where Sean outlasted the zVirus.

1st Jantz

2nd Pete

3rd Couls

4rd Sean (after double overtime)

5th Zach (lost in double overtime)

6th Jeff (lost in overtime to Z and S)

7th Bing

8th Johnson

Air Hockey

By far the longest event of the night and probably the most competitive. At this point in time we had worked up a sweat given the passion for winning mixed with the fact that Dave and Buster's didn't seem to care that the temp was bordering on 100 degrees. Is it some secret that people play more Dance Dance Revolution or Cruisin' America when they are sweating their asses off or what?

1st Jantz

2nd Couls

3rd Pete

4th Zach

5th Bing

6th Sean...up 5-0 on Pete and ended up scoring on himself 5 times

7th Jeff

8th Johnson

Overall Standings were as follows:

1st Jantz 20 pts

(wins in a tie breaker battle against Kris...head to head in each of the three events. Ironically Jantz beat Couls in skee ball, which Couls won the first time around, then gets torched by Couls in pop a shot--Couls shoots out the lights with a 72!!--and then wins his third game in a row on the air hockey table to earn his big 8 points for the SOM Arcade Night Challenge.)

2nd Couls 20 pts

3rtd Pete 19 pts

4th Sean 15 pts

5th Bing 11 pts

6th Zach 10 pts

7th Jeff 8 pts

8th Johnson 4 pts

A subplot to this night was the ownership of the High School Musical Last Place Bracelet or as it's commonly referred to, the iSAL (I Suck At Life). Up to this point the iSAL had been bouncing around (Sean to Johnson to the current owner Commish). After Arcade Night there was a two week break, which meant that the last place person would be wearing the iSAL for the duration of the downtime. Not good. Getting the bracelet off of my wrist was an absolute must.

After SOM 6, the standings were

Couls 45

Pete 36.5

Jantz 35.5

Bing 34.5

Sean 32

Jeff 26

Johnson 21

Zach 20.5 (yup, that's right...i'd be wearing the iSAL for two more weeks because of one half of one friggin' point. this is my life...welcome to the zVirus show)

UP NEXT....SOM 7 THE 24 POINT NIGHT

SOM 4 &5 Dia de Futbol: Jogo Bonito it was not

Futbol as it's called here in northern Mexico (what some refer to as San Diego) is known as "The Beautiful Game." It was anything but on a clear April Saturday afternoon behind Mission Bay High School. 8 men were able to take the world's most popular sport and make it look absolutely terrible. Well at least seven of us did.

The current first place man and the current last place man, Couls and Johnson respectively, were soccer players. The rest of us would probably have a hard time matching up against a team of 9 year old select players.

SOM 5 consisted of three events. Juggling, time trial and goal keeping. Juggling was actually way more competitive than last year. Jantz won the juggling challenge last year with 14, which would have placed him in 5th this year. Couls dominated by scoring a 38, and probably could have kept going, but he only needed to beat Pete's 36. The rest of the field didn't even get half of that. Johnson underperformed and his weak 14 garnered him a 5th place, which was surprising given his supposed soccer skills. Bing and Jantz both stayed consistent and finished in the top four for the second straight year, although Jantz would ultimately fail in defending his soccer crown from Couls. He did successfully out juggle Bing in a tie breaker. Sean and Jeff would also tie, though at the more embarrassing figure of 4, with Sean winning the tie and avoiding last place.

The final standings for juggling:

1st Couls 38

2nd Peter 36

3rd Jantz 15

4th Bing 15

5th Johnson 14

6th Zach 5

7th Sean 4

8th Jeff 4

The Goal Keeper Challenge could have easily been renamed "Guy in the Goal While Everyone Else Sucks at Life." You didn't really have to block any shots to win the challenge this year, you just had to be standing there when the rest of us missed the most amount of shots and you were GG. These were supposed to be FREE shots. 9 times out of 10 the striker is scoring in soccer. Oh no no, not this group of turds. 14 shots per Man challenger in the goal and the average made goal per round was 4. 4 of 14! It's not like we were Patrick Roy out there. Most of the shots were just outright pure misses. There were some bright spots though. Couls (and maybe Bingaman) did have a legitimately harder time in the goal than the rest of us with more shots actually being blocked than missed. The winner of the event Sean on the other hand just had the fortune of almost every single person basically whiffing on their goal opportunity. His 2 goals out of 14 scored on him, as well as Jantz's and Johnson's 3 goals, were more a testament to how shitty the rest of us were at penalty kicks than to how good they were at goalkeeping. Our mistake this year was counting a miss and a block as the one in the same. In the future to help better measure our goal keeping skills I intend to rank blocks as higher and misses as lower and also possibly award points for how many shots you make while shooting minus points for how many misses while shooting. Then the ratio of blocks/misses combined with how many goals you successfully make will dictate where you place in the goalie challenge. That would take away the option of tanking a shot to give a person a half point rather than a full point because you would also be penalized for misses while shooting as well as rewarded for makes. But this year we learned that just maybe (and by maybe I mean absof%^&*inglutely) the best goalie did not win the goalie challenge.

Final scoring for goal keeping, where each man defended the goal against the 7 other competitors over the course of three rounds were as follows:

1st Sean 2 of 14 shots scored

four way tie Jantz/Johnson/Bing/Couls for second place with 3 of 14 shots scored...after tie breaker

2nd Couls 0 of 3 shots scored on by the other tied competitors

3rd Jantz 2 of 3 shots scored (tied with Johnson, but ended up beating him in a sudden death shoot out)

4th Johnson 2 of 3 shots scored (lost shootout to Jantz)

5th Bing 3 of 3 shots scored

6th Pete 4 of 14 shots scored

7th Zach 5 of 14 shots scored

8th Jeff 6 of 14 shots scored

The final event of the day consisted of a timed lap dribbling the soccer ball 30 yards up the field through a series of cones and back, ending with a shot from 10 yards out on goal. Miss a cone, knock over a cone or miss the goal and a time penalty is added on (2 seconds cone knock, 10 seconds missed cone and 5 seconds for goal missed).

It was here that controversy entered into the man challenge. Let it be said that in Jantz's defense, we have reason to believe that his parents dropped him on his head at a young age so it's not his fault that he is almost completely retarded.

To those of you reading that may not be familiar with the greatness that is SOM (Summer of Man), this is our second year of competition. Last year it was basically 6 men just flying by the seat of our pants, making things up as we went. Everything was new to us. Rules were inserted as the need for them came up. This being our second year of competition, we have a bit of experience at our backs. It's still a work in progress and questions still arise. To combat this I've done my best as commissioner to try and map out every possible scenario so that when problems do arise a solution is easily identifiable. This would be a difficult task in and of itself alone. Now add to the mix eight, cocky, self involved, semi retarded, attention deficient, hyper competitive men and what you have is a text book clusterfuck. At the beginning of each event I announce the rules, how everything is going to go down and how it will be scored. This is not to say that the announcement is heeded. Going into the final event of the soccer challenge, this fact was made abundantly clear when Jantz violated a rule that was clearly defined prior to his running of the trial.

Now this would not have been that big of an issue with a slightly less competitive group of people, but unfortunately we are not that kind of people. Jantz pleaded for a very unmanly "REDO" and was granted one (mainly for the aforementioned clumsiness of his parents). When Peter found out about this REDO he was less than thrilled about it. Oh and why did Peter "find out about it" you ask given the fact that he is a man challengers and one would think that he would be there when the REDO in question occurred? Peter had better things to do than hang out with his friends and had already bounced from the challenge at this point in time...but that's whole other issue that has already been beat to death. (for more on that feel free to browse... http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_189870081035929&ap=1) Long story short, Jantz was wrong to even ask for a REDO, but we just as guilty for granting his down syndromed ass one.

Basically what it did was jump Jantz from third to last (yeah he still beat Pete and Jeff even with his numb skull screw up) to second place. Days later, after a man vote, it was agreed that Jantz would be given a penalty which placed him back in 6th place. It was also agreed upon that if a Man Challenger ever invoked the possibility of a REDO in the future he would be punched in his huge vagina and docked a man point. So settles the drama of the REDO.

Time Trials

1st Couls 23.5

2nd Zach 25.9

3rd Bing 27.4

4th Johnson 28.5

5th Sean 28.9

6th Jantz 30

7th Pete 32

8th Jeff 35

After it was tallied here were the final standings for SOM 5 Soccer

1st Couls 23 pts....two first places and a second, played up to his favorite status and owned a challenge that was thought to be his in the first place. What a commie bastard

2nd Jantz 19 pts...followed up 2010 soccer win with a strong second place

3rd Bing 14 pts.....3rd, 4th and 5th place finishes, very consistent

Tie with 13 pts Johnson/Sean....we decided that Oklahomas had to be done for even the soccer challenge and what better match up then the one between the hated rivals? Classic battle with the win going to Johnson who made a terrific goal line stop that the commissioner's office had to go to the tape to verify. After a slow motion review, the tie breaker went to Johnson

4th Johnson 13 pts...underperformance of the summer so far given the fact that we all thought Johnson was a soccer player

5th Sean 13 pts...a hard loss at the hands of his hated rival will either inspire or depress the Bayhorse. Which will it be?

6th Zach 11 pts....not a good showing by the zVirus who, like the Red Sox, has dug himself into a pretty deep hole

7th Pete 10 pts....an awful showing for the self proclaimed Great White Hype who followed up a strong juggling performance with two sub par events

8th Jeff 3 pts.....three LAST PLACE FINISHES exposed Jeff as the most over rated man challenger of 2011. He also bounced early, most likely to go home to douche. It was only a matter of time that the he would be the first SOM dropout.

After 5 Challenges Couls retained the first place watch while I took the yellow loser last place bracelet and would hold on to it for next 5 weeks. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Up next Arcade Night at Dave and Busters....

SOM 4&5 Dia de Futbol: Part 1

"First in the competition, last to be picked for a game."

The Pistol, commenting on Sean's football win

Trash talk. From concrete courts in the Bronx to fantasy football message boards in suburbia. It can be found everywhere a game is being played by hyper competitive people.

Watching ESPN's latest (and absolutely fantastic) 30 for 30 documentary about the legendary Michigan freshmen entitled The Fab Five, I learned an interesting fact. According to the film, along with baggy shorts and black socks, the unique and inventive gifted freshmen also introduced college basketball to the practice of trash talk. Now can this statement be validated? I tend to disregard the age old adage "Don't believe everything you hear on TV," so when I hear Jalen Rose tell me that trash talking didn't exist in college basketball before the Fab 5 came along, I blindly believe him. If this is true, then trash talk has come a long way since 1992.

All sorts of games these days are dominated by trash talk. I participate in a fantasy football league who's main priorities are:

1. Be good at trash talking on message boards

and,

2. Be fairly familiar with how to play fantasy football.

It's what makes me like Ray Lewis more and most people like Philip Rivers less. Mike Tyson rebuilt his career on it and made millions talking it after his prison stint. It's the one reason I talk to my brother during baseball season. But Jalen Rose is probably wrong. The first caveman who clubbed the hottest chick and drug her back to his cave probably talked shit about it the entire way. We're men. It's what we do.

Which is why on Saturday when Sean, a high school hero, bested a bunch of other high school heroes during the football challenge it was only natural that trash was talked. Sean backed up his lofty talk though (word was he boasted he could go 10 for 10 hitting one of the uprights with a football) by winning SOM 4/Football challenge. Sean came in second in the accuracy throw, had the fifth longest punt, the third longest throw and was in the top three for field goal kicking. It was by some accounts completely expected (Sean's account) and by other's (pretty much everyone else's) out of the blue. Sean's resume stacks up though. If we're to believe him, he started QB for his high school team all four years, kicked every single field goal for them and also was the team's punter. Either it was a small school or he was awesome with an exclamation mark.

The irony is though this post centers around the concept of trash talk, I have no grounds to do it. Sean was consistently better than everyone else in the challenges we competed in. That may not sit well with some of the competitors, but the writing is on the wall none the less. I guess when it comes down to it all we have left is trash talk. We can call his mom fat or his sister ugly or his girlfriend a whore, but in the end he will be able to do what every winner in the history of winners have earned the right to do and that is to point and say the one thing losers hate to hear..."Look at the scoreboard"

Football Standings:

If you're reading this and you are unfamiliar with SOM I'll describe the challenge for you (and also ask you who are you and why are you reading this?)

The football challenge is broken down into four events: The Accuracy Throw, the Long Toss, Field Goal and Punt.

The Accuracy Throw is five throws at each upright and the crossbar, 15 total. Each competitor was throwing from the 10 yard line. The Long Toss was an elimination game where each competitor threw from 25 yards out through the uprights, stepping back 10 yards after every successful throw. If you missed at a distance twice in a row, you were out. Field Goal was set up the exact same way. The Punt competition experienced a little bit of turmoil this year when the Men disagreed over what the punt consisted of: where it hits or where it rolled to. Since the rule in the beginning included the roll and was not challenged until the competition began, the punt distance included the roll. Next year we may cut the roll and just calculate where the punt hits. Same as last year; winner gets 8, second gets 7 and so on down the line.

ACCURACY:

Johnson 7 of 15

Sean 7 of 15 (tie breaker went to Johnson)

Jeff 4 of 15

Couls 4 of 15

Pete 3 of 15

Bing 3 of 15

Jantz 2 of 15

Zach 2 of 15

PUNT:

Pete...probably a 60 yarder (at least 20 on the roll)

Couls...longest out of the air but lack the bounce, 5 yards short of Pete's

Zach....good bounce, around 10 to 15 yards short of the winner

Jantz...barely a yard or so behind zVirus

Sean...some roll to it, but not enough

Johnson...good distance in the air but all his kicks suffered the backward bounce

Bing.....short of the winning kick by 25 yards or so

Jeff.....three worst kicks of the day all sitting short of the 25 yard line (sadly for him he bombed a 70 yarder off by himself when it didn't count)

LONG TOSS:

Jeff: far and away the winner; ended up throwing a spiral almost 65 yards through the uprights

Pete: part of the top three that beat everyone else by at least 20 yards

Sean: his arm tired in the end quicker than Pete's; neither were competition for Jeff

Bing: a huge improvement from last year throwing around 20 yards further in '11

Johnson: his last throw looked like a dying animal falling to the ground

Couls: did his best to keep pace, but didn't have the arm to last long

Jantz: got beat by Couls in a tie breaker

Zach: weakest arm of the bunch; basically the looks of Tom Brady but the arm of Gisele

FIELD GOAL:

Sean/Jantz/Jeff: the top three

***after the top three, we ended up not finishing out the field goal kicks because halfway through the standings were cemented in and nothing would have changed***

Johnson: underperformed in an event that he felt he should have excelled in

Couls: his soccer skills couldn't help him here

Zach/Bing: a tie, though it should be noted that Bing conceded zVirus as the better field goal kicker

Pete: missed his only two field goal kicks

1st Sean............23-25 pts---(2nd, 5th, 3rd & 1/2/3)
2nd Jeff.............21-23 pts---(3rd, 8th, 1st & 1/2/3)
3rd Pete............20 pts------(5th, 1st, 2nd & 8th)
4th Johnson......20 pts------(1st, 6th, 5th & 4th)
5th Couls..........19 pts------(4th, 2nd, 6th & 5th)
6th Jantz...........15-17 pts---(7th, 4th, 7th & 1/2/3)
7th Bing............12-13 pts---(6th, 7th, 4th & 6/7)
8th Zach...........10-11 pts---(8th, 3rd, 8th & 6/7)

to be continued.....Part 2 of Dia de Futbol

Half Marathon Update

As of today 6 of the 8 Men have signed up for the Rock and Roll San Diego Half Marathon. Johnson and Jeff are both conceding defeat at this point.

The Half Marathon is scheduled for June 5th.

Sidenote: An interesting plotline is developing. Man Challenger Pistol Pete has recently signed up along with his GF Caster Troy, who by all accounts is quite the little runner. The big question is will the Pistol be bested by his lady friend? Right now she's a 5-1 favorite and we'll be accepting wagers at Club Grand up until race day.

Good luck Frosted Flake....you're gonna need it.

SOM 3 Bowling

"You mark that frame an 8 and you are entering a world of pain."

-Walter Sobchak

Don't look now but a new bowling world record may have been set late Tuesday night in the small neighborhood of Kearney Mesa. A man (I use this term loosely) bowled three of the shittiest games in the history of the sport (I also use this term loosely), a feat that will most likely never be matched again. At least not by someone over the age of 6. Early reports coming out of Kearney Mesa Bowling Lanes is that on average most middle school pizza party bowling groups bowl higher than one Jason Johnson of Pacific Beach California. Johnson averaged a raggedy andy 91. In basketball, golf or in a ridiculously awesome football game that would be a good score. In bowling it's the equivalent of watching a kid with down syndrome compete on Jeopardy.

According to the internet (and as we all know if it's on the internet it's 100% true) the average bowling score for men is 150 to 160 (Women are closer to 130). I give you now the average score tallied by the 8 men competing in SOM 2011 where we bowled three games, dropped the lowest score and averaged the remaining two. I'll let the numbers do the talking (and yes, I scored like an average woman, don't rub it in).

Couls 200.5

Bing 172

Taka 161

Sean 158.5

Pistol 157

Jantz 131.5

Klemo 128

Johnson 91

Bing and Pete were fairly consistent bowlers, each putting up exactly the same number in the first two games (172 and 157 respectively). They both fell off the pace in the last game though which most likely cost Pete two spots, falling to Sean by a mere pin and a half. Sean bowled out of his mind in the first game with a 181 and then followed that miracle by notching a 112 and a 138. Jantz ended up being the most consistent bowler (129, 125, 134). Unfortunately for him he was consistently shitty, garnering a sixth place finish. Jeff, the wild card, again showed why he was a strong addition to SOM 2011 by throwing bullets and finishing in the top three. With his game faltering (after starting out with a 178, he quickly put up a 144 and then a 106) he ended the second game with four straight strikes (and started the next game by throwing his fifth straight strike) which saved him from totally choking away a great start.

In the end, Couls won back the first place watch from Pete being the only bowler to touch the 200's. Johnson was never a factor and for his trouble he was rewarded with the last place supergay bracelet (which honestly needs to be supergayer...Lush would no doubt be stoked to wear the High School Musical piece of jewelry). I'm predicting right now that Johnson is the proud owner of the last place talisman for, at the very least, the next month.

Next up on the calender is a big 16 Point Dia de Futbol....SOM 4 &5: Football (Punt, Pass & Kick) and Soccer. Futbol and Futbol Americano if you will. We'll be at the OB Rec Fields at 9 AM on Saturday if anyone would like to come by a watch a bunch of high school heroes reliving the glory days.

The Numbers:

Couls.....200/165/201

Bing.......172/172/129

Jeff........178/144/106

Sean......181/112/138

Peter.....157/157/128

Jantz.....129/125/134

Zach......115/109/141

Johnson...77/82/100

It appears that Johnson was out of his element.

SEAN WINS AN EVENT

Oops. Meant to post that on April Fool's.

One day late. My bad.
