MEN’S SINGLES TOURNAMENT
August 6, 2021
|
ELIGIBILITY: Open to
all Oxnard LBC male members. Twelve players signed up and played three
10-end games.
There was a 7 point cap on each game. 1st Place: Rich Purcell 3 W + 17 points. 2nd Place: Mike Newton 3 W + 11 points. 3rd Place: Ken Paddock 2 W + 7 points. Note: Using the 7 point cap on each game, there was a tie for 3rd place between Steve Goodmanson and Ken paddock. The tie was broken by using total points. This allowed Ken one more point giving him the 3rd place win. Our tournament chairman Jack Bucey put on a great club tournament with six rinks full. From very experienced members to some new members, all took part and enjoyed the games. Thanks go the the markers: Susan LACroix, Susan Paddock, Sandy Rankin, Marie Moore, Linda Westray and Herb Smith and Dick Gibson who split the duty. Photos by Bob Smith and Mark Wilson
