The first and last Willie Chen's Out of Your Ass Singles Classic was held yesterday after the conclusion of the Lester Pearson Invitational tournament. Matthew Sherman of UCLA won the tournament in the final over Dwight Wynne, who made the final despite being the eighth and final seed in the top bracket. The format was a double elimination bracket of eight with four team brackets for 9-12 and 13- 16. Also, the preceding tournament's results are up at http://www.bol.ucla.edu/~quizbowl/lp_standings.html, apparently, but I'll leave Matthew to make a more detailed post about that. USC C won. Results are as follows (losses entirely capitalized, victories not): 1. Matthew Sherman (UCLA) (2, seed before playoffs) (Marc, Mik, Drew, Dwight) 2.
