Here are the results from the STTC 2010 Spring Open tournament held on Saturday, April 10th. We had a total of 26 players in 7 events, from cities all across the greater central Illinois area and even as far as Indiana!

Thanks to the Douglas Avenue United Methodist Church for hosting the event, Rick Goertz and J Rosse for organizing the tournament, and all the volunteers who helped run things in the tournament and in the kitchen! A special thanks to Sheryl White for doing a great job in the kitchen and to J for making everything run smoothly at the scorer's table.

Below are the crossover final results; complete detailed round robin results (in PDF format), as well as pictures, will be available soon. Also, a reporter from the local news station was at the tournament; he shot video of the matches and interviewed a few people about the club and the tournament. He'll contact Rick when the video segment is posted online! UPDATE! The video is now available online at the illinoiscentral.tv Web site.

Congratulations again to all the players who took home prizes. We hope to see you all again at our Fall Open, if you don't stop by to play sooner! Also, the full 2010 Spring tournament results (in PDF format) are now available.
