Each player participated in a 4-player round-robin with their counterparts from the other 3 teams at the competition – The Cincinnati Backgammon Players Club, The Dayton Backgammon Club, and the Hoosiers Backgammon Club. We scored 16 out of a possible 21 points, with 3 players posting perfect 3-0 records – Jeff Boester, Mike Rezai, and Seth Bartlett! As a result, we got to take home the traveling trophy (see attached picture) which will soon have the names of our players who competed today engraved upon it!
