Sunday, March 5th, college teams from around the ACBL competed in an online tournament to earn a subsidized trip to Atlanta for the Collegiate Bridge Bowl. Our two fine Minnesota teams entered; one from University of Minnesota and one from Carleton College.
We are delighted to announce that the U of MN team finished 5th out of 18, with the Carleton team coming in 7th. The recap is here.
The event pays expenses for the first 4 finishers, so unfortunately our two teams were just out of the money. Nevertheless, we are quite proud of our college bridge players for doing so well in a tough field!
A big "well done" to the U of MN team: Morgan Johnstone, Sean McNally, Matt Moskal and Ben Popken, and also to our Carleton College team competitors: Alexander Frieden, Thomas Scruggs, Sophia Maymudes and Jeffrey Boitnott.
Six more packages will be awared, though! Four will go to the top finishers in the April 8th competition, and two in Daily CBO games. I'm sure our students will be working hard to compete more. Join me in wishing them the best down the road!
