WINSTON STANDINGS

 

Three weeks ago Sam had a comfortable lead and all of a sudden we have ourselves a race! Zach, Chris and Dalton have all picked up a Helmet to tighten up the race. The Helmet wins seem to be harder to get in the second half, so get them early!

WINSTON STANDINGS(AFTER TWELVE WEEKS)
SAM SCHIESSER - 4 Helmets and 1 Major
ZACH GOBBETT - 3 Helmets and 1 Major
CHRIS HENDERSON - 2 Helmets
DALTON SHORE - 2 Helmets
ZANE LAWSON - 1 Helmet

THE CAPTAIN

15TH BATTALION OLYMPICS

 

 

 

Once again the Btln Olympics live up to the hype! Like every other Olympics from the past there were many different lead changes throughout the night. At least twice during the night I was told that someone had a big lead and that it was probably over. After the night was over it was interesting to look at the numbers and realize that it came down three or four games. Four guys ended within two points of the winner. In the end it was one of the closest finishes we have ever had. Congratulations to Zach Gobbett, the new Btln Olympic Champion! Zach is in grade ten and is the youngest Champion we have ever had. In the past the winner has always been in grade eleven or grade twelve. This begs the question, can Zach become the first three time Champion?

BTLN OLYMPIC CHAMPIONS

 

Over the years the Olympics have some times been very predictable and other times totally surprising. Aaron Friesen's first win, Derek Taylor's complete dominance, Dan Neufeld's win, Ben Jepsen's first win and Cam Thompson's win all took us by surprise. That is probably why we like the Olympics so much, because you never know what to expect.
In fourteen years we have had ten Btln Olympic Champions.
