2007 Midland Memorial (Results)

Rookie of the Tournament, Co-MVP of the Tournament and two sinks in the Championship game including the walk-off. Who, you might ask, am i referring to? Christopher Wrenn, that's who. Not a bad debut as Chris combined with his cousin Keith to shock the Beerdie world in ending JJ's streak of first place finishes. Chris' title game heroics overshadowed KRG's dominant offensive & defensive performance on Saturday afternoon. Congrats to team W.S.P. who won despite not winning their division, which would have earned them a first round bye. This victory cements Keith's status as a top tier player and puts him in the top five in all major statistical categories...
1st Place -- Keith Garceau & Chris Wrenn
2nd Place -- Jamie Jones & Ryan Skitromo
3rd Place -- D M & Nicholas Smith


Beerdie Tournaments can make for some strange bedfellows...JJ & the Kid made the most of an interesting pairing by winning their division and advancing all the way to the finals before falling to team W.S.P. The fact that they accomplished all this on a day in which the all time points leader failed to sink one shot, makes it all the more impressive a feat...





The Midland Memorial also marked the return of the legend that is DM. This was Dan's first appearance since winning last year's Invitational. This time he was matched up with confident newcomer Nick 'Doctor' Smith. These two went undefeated in divisional play behind Dan's 12 cups hit and the doctor of defense, but faltered in the semifinals after receiving their first round bye. They did rebound to defeat 'Team Irish' in the third place game, but Dan was clearly not happy with anything other than a 1st place finish...


Team Irish began the day as the prohibitive favorite with rookie of the year candidate Jonny Fid joining the 'Irish Assassin' K O on his home court. But after a strong start, they would falter against JJ & Kid in the semi-finals and Murdz & Lovins in the 3rd place game. K.O. is now the highest ranking player to have never won a major tournament. He is also now 1-4 lifetime against his friend and 'beerdie' father figure H.O.F.

2nd Place -- Team Fever (K.O. & K.G.)

2006 Fall Classic (Results)

The second major tournament of the beer-die season did not go without some controversy. JJ & MIF turned out victorious, but how they got there became an issue that left a bad taste in the mouths of many participants. Deez & Pablo were knocked out in the round of eight after finishing 4-0 in the round-robin portion. Tough break for a team that thought they were going to recieve a 1st round bye. JJ & MIF took advantage in squeeking past team 'Fever' in the semi-finals and wrapping up the title. JJ is the new overall points leader thanks in part to a remarkable 28 cups hit through two major tournaments.
1st Place -- Team Hardware (JJ & Mif)
2nd Place -- Team Hooters (Meyers & Woj.)
3rd Place -- Team Fever (K.O. & K.G.)
