Hurricane Irene did all she could to disrupt the second year of the golf tournament, but 13 out of the 20 original participants braved the conditions and golfed through the rain for 18 holes.

However, 18 holes wasn't enough to decide a champion as Ben and I were tied with Will and Mukul at that point. We played the 1st hole again as a playoff (without Mukul, who went to hockey) and as we battled through the downpour and the darkness, we stood there staring at Will having a 3' putt to win it all ... and it rimmed out. Personally, I think he was just being nice to us and missed it on purpose. With that, we decided to call it a draw, and now Will and I can say we won the very tournament that we put on every year.

Thanks to those that came out, it was amazing we were able to get 18 (or 19) holes in before the hurricane blows away the state of Connecticut tomorrow morning.
