Tournament and Promotional Results

We had a great time at the tournament and are sorry for those who wanted to make the trip, but couldn't.

There were over 140 players and 20 teams that competed at this tournament, which may prove to be the largest contingency in SEUSKF tournament history.

Here are the final results of each division. Congrats to all!
