Greetings, everyone! Eleven teams from six schools, plus one unaffiliated team, competed at TRASH Regionals Southwest at the University of Tulsa on Saturday November 11th. We played a full round robin, and at the end of the day, here is how the teams finished: Alcoholics Synonymous (Tulsa) 9-1 Toss Us Another Bagel (OSU A & Rolla Alum) 8-2 Tell Your Children (Oklahoma) 8-2 I-44 Goes Everywhere: A Tribute to Tracy Oliver (Rolla) 7-3 Grumpy Old Men (Dave Legler and Co.) 6-4 The A-Team (SWOSU A) 4-6 As Seen on TV (UTD A) 4-6 Borat Sexytime (UTD B) 3-7 Animaniacs (OSU B) 3-7 Jackson 5 (SWOSU B) 2-8 Team Venture (OSU C, Drury, & NWOSU) 1-9 The Top 5 Individual Scorers were: Captain Morgan (Alcoholics Synonymous) 56.32 PPG Orkin (Borat Sexytime) 40.50 PPG Oscar Madison (Grumpy Old Men) 39.50 PPG The Dumbo Drop (I-44 Goes Everywhere) 37.00 PPG Brisco County, Jr. (As Seen on TV) 34.00 PPG Moreover, because I had stipulated before the tournament began that to be the tournament champion, a team had to possess a two-game advantage over the second place team, we had playoffs for the top three teams. In the tie-breaker match, Toss Us Another Bagel defeated Tell Your Children 165-150. In the first championship match, Alcoholics Synonymous and Toss Us Another Bagel tied, 125-125. But in the second championship match, Alcoholics Synonymous defeated Toss Us Another Bagel, 260-180. So in summary, Alcoholics Synonymous won TRASH Regionals Southwest, with Toss Us Another Bagel in second place. And Captain Morgan was the top individual scorer. I would like to thank everyone who attended, without whom there could not have been a tournament. Also, I would like to thank everyone who volunteered to read and/or scorekeep, especially Dave and Lori Murphy. Lastly, I would like to thank the TRASH editors for a great question set.
