YK Beach Co-Ed Cup Results

The following are the results of the YK Beach Co-Ed Cup this past Saturday, August 21, 2010.
First of all, kudos goes out to Mother Nature – we had a warm, sunny day for our final Beach Volleyball Tournament of the summer!

Tier 1, and winner of the Co-Ed Cup:
1st – Gillian Waugh and Chad Hinchey
2nd – Dana Harris and Ron Chiasson
3rd – Meika Stewart and Daniel Stewart

Tier 2 Finals:
1st – Megan Clelland and Tyler Comeau

2nd – Skylar Urschel and Dylan Short
3rd – Chloe Smith and Garrett Hinchey

It was a fantastic season of Beach Volleyball this year, evident in the level of play everyone has reached.
A special thanks goes out to all the players, the volunteers, Fred Henne Park, and everyone involved.

Now, although we’re shutting down for the season, don’t forget about the Snow Volleyball Tournament held annually in March on the ice (usually the 3rd weekend of March)… Next year will be the 5th annual event, so we want as many teams out there as possible!!
