John, I think Roger will post full complete report.

I finished 1st with 24 points, scoring two wins against Michael Holmes in Rd. 3. Michael finished 2nd with 21 points. Anthony Bishop had 17 points and one game to go with Neil Wenberg before I left. It is more likely that Anthony took 3rd place.

There should very tough competition for the 4th place and IN State Champion title.

I will post my games with Michael under "Games" Section.

Respectfully,

AM
