 What happened at the Cliff Keen Tournament in Las Vegas last weekend?

The short version is: the Beavers took 10th out of 39 teams. Taylor Meeks finished second at 184. Ronnie Bresser III and Abraham Rodriguez were 7th at 125 and 149 respectively, and Alex Elder finished 8th at 157. Congratulations, all!

Two Beavs were one win from placing, Jack Hathaway at 133 and Cody Crawford at 197. It's a long, hard fought climb when you are making your way through the consolation rounds.
