ANN ARBOR OPEN
Burns Park - Ann Arbor, MI
June 16, 2006
The first sanctioned event of 2006
almost ended before it began. Only 7 players could be found (as C.
Frushour wussed out) but Claire Forster stepped in to save the day.
Not
only did she fill the 8th spot, but her experience pitching softballs
carried her deep into the competition.
With a group of inexperienced
players, Dan Kidle, the host of the tournament, was the heavy favorite
to bring home the Chimpionship medal. However, Stuart Remick pulled
an
upset over Dan 15-13 in the winner's bracket final. After cruising
past
Walker Rutter-Bowman 15-3 in the loser's bracket final, Dan was matched
up against Stuart in the tournament finals. With Stuart up 10-5, Dan
made a bold move, switching from the traditional throw to the
rope-pinch method. Dan came back and won the match 15-10, then clinched
the Ann Arbor Open Chimpionship with another 15-10 victory. The
cardboard medal that Dan had made for the event was his to keep.
