The Total Earnings category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The Avg Rank category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The Made Cut category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The tournament overall was won by the Tour Outsider.

The overall results between the Tour Outsider and the Tour Insider is 7 wins to the Tour Outsider, 19 wins to the Tour Insider, and 3 draws.

This was a good tournament for both Bolton and I. We both had a winner with Stricker. He won the tournament for a 3rd straight year. Go Illini!! Both Bolton and I had 3 top 5 picks with Stricker, Johnson, and Howell. I ended up winning the tournament over Bolton because Toms withdrew from the tournament, and Slocum made the cut and place 38th.

I am still hanging on by a thread, albeit it a very thin thread.
