Incredibly, despite missing the entirety of the baseball playoffs this year, Al Allen has won this year's Albert C. Allen Annual Baseball trophy. For those of you that don't know, or don't remember, each Spring Al sponsored a competition in which family members pick which teams will win each division in baseball, and who will go onto the playoffs! Family members submit their picks by opening day, and come October we see who wins. This year, Al was the overall victor!
He inherits the trophy from Ken Wing, the 2007 winner, who held the trophy exemplary-ly during his year tenure.
Al did not get a single point in the post-season, but his 20 points was enough to hold off second place finishers Mark McCloud with 17 points, (who selected more playoff teams than AL, but failed to see any team advance to the next rounds!), and Mike Wheeler, also with 17 points. Sara and near winner last year Cassie rounded out the top 5 both with 15 points. Reed, Marcie, Jeff and Jay (who made up for an abysmal performance last year!) all finished with 14 points. Others rounded out the field, with Lisa taking over the annual laterne rouge trophy for last place from Jay Steele.
Way to go AL!
