Steve Ryals directed with Clark Ketchum and Dick Vandenburg assisting. I had expected to play and direct but business interfered on Saturday. Next year I'll be able to work it out! Mark Holm and David Vest each won a $25 upset prize to give them a total of $100 winnings. Next year we expect to award an upset prize in each of the first 4 rounds and probably add a new class between c & D to cut down the number of entries in those two groups -- over 2/3 of the players were rated under 1600. Yasser came last year but was beatin in the last round. This time he didn't slip. -- Dick Vandenburg
