Steve wins, but the league loses.
By Ben Lasher
The Lunar Open ended quickly as the Unfreds left their own event, upset in a non-croquet related argument. Only time will tell if wounds will heal. The rest of the league was left in shock. Nathan said, "Uhhh..", in confusion at how the events had transpired. Steve won his own tourney, with Nathan a solid second, and Brandon a lucky third. This event marks a milestone as such, as Brandon and Ben have now played in 10 events this year! Points as they now stand: Rank Player Attended Total points 1st 2nd 3rd M.P. 1 Brandon 10 34 1 2 3 20 2 Steve 8 22 3 1 2 2 3 Jon 7 19 2 3 - - 4 Ben 10 15 1 1 1 6 5 Mike 8 13 1 - 2 6 6 Nathan 3 5 - 1 - 2 7 Scott 1 0 - - - - 8 Alan 2 0 - - - - 8 Amy 2 0 - - - -
Pez Invitational, will be August 21st, 7 p.m. in the spacious Jon Dome. Pez will be given, croquet will be played, people will be used. Sport's Day Festival, was to be September 4th, at a school but has now been moved to August 28th at Nathan's course at 10 AM. The reason for this is twofold. One, Labor Day weekend is September 4th, and two, "The Living Legend" will be in town for the 28th. Later on the Tour: Spam Invitational, September 24th The IMC Tournament of Champions. And on October 2nd, the final Major, and last Tourney of the season will occur. Mark your calendars! Some time after the final Major, (It went so fast didn't it?) will be the awards party. All players should attend and such. Though I'm sure, some of you will have excuses. Amy and Jon will be in college out of city, and Scott, like always, will be sitting in front of a computer in California.
The Iron man Croquet League is growing, a second fan site has popped up, mine! Check out http://members.xoom.com/zernic/balls.html This is the address for Iron Man Croquet in the Lasher Brother's web site. Steve's site will still be active, so the "sister sites" will continue to bring you all the croquet news fit to be seen by the world.
