2008 Season Wraps Up... Time To Hibernate.
Another great season in the books. The Tournament provided its usual handful of memorable happenings... the 9 & 10 seed reach the Final 4... A 1-0 bottom of the 6th walk-off win by Goettsch over VOA to preserve their undefeated record and advance to the Final 4... And an insane drinking game that broke out in the skate park, spawned by a guy named Jimmy who later passed out for a while... It was good to be back on Upper Hutchinson this year for the Tournament.
Defending Champions - Goettsch Partners
Back Row (left to right); Scott Seyer, Matt McCreary, Dan Lipetzky, Melissa Venoy, Eric Schlickman, Tom Peak, Andrew Tarcin
Middle Row; Mike Bretz, Ed Zimmerman, Willie Chandler, Alyssa Simons, Brian Miller, Lisa Hill, Frank Mraz, Jason Shimp

This season Goettsch set some marks that will prove next to impossible to match in future seasons. First they posted the only undefeated season in (Grant Park) Design League history... then they ran the table on Tournament Day giving up only 8 runs over 5 games capped off by a decisive 16-3 win over last years champ Clune Construction.
