SE Regional Tournament Results

As Elliott said, Mud Island definitely lived up to it's name this year. Overnight and morning rains made the ground EXTREMELY soft, and after a few games the courts were trashed. It became Mudbag, or some other game, not exactly Footbag Net. We did manage to layout some new courts for the semi's and final matches, and they played well.

We had a great turnout from out of state. Tina Lewis, Sam Conlon, John Leys, Mike McCarthy, Jeremey Merken, Cory Current, & Robert Crell journeyed to Memphis for Ribs and a little MudBag Net. Plus, a great turnout from Nashville as always. The Memphis crew particularly enjoyed all sitting on the sidelines watching the out of towners compete in the finals... motivation for next year.
