The finals pitted the hometown Mike Keenan Employment Agency, LLC vs. last 
year's finalists BATTLEPLANET!!! in a re-match of the first round of the 
entire tournament in which BATTLEPLANET!!! won a tight game. (As the one 
who put the schedules together, I swear it was blind luck.) The game was a 
one-game, winner-take-all matchup because the Keenans had the CBA points 
lead but BATTLEPLANET!!! had the head-to-head advantage.

In the finals, BATTLEPLANET!!! took the early lead, followed by a flurry by 
the Keenans to take the lead in the second half. After a see-saw battle 
throughout the second half, BATTLEPLANET!!! hit the last three tossups for 
a 260-200 win and the TRASHionals title.

Congratulations to BATTLEPLANET!!! (Dave Murphy, Adam Mitchell, Brian 
Hight, Jeremy White) for a hard-fought victory, and a very impressive run 
for the title, the giant martini glass trophy and the famous belt, which 
earns them an automatic bid to next year's TRASHionals.

Individual stats to come ...
