Last Saturday, 31 teams made it out to Graffiti Junction in Clermont, FLfor Central Florida Cornhole’s first tournament at this great new location.
The weather was perfect and the competition was fierce as Corn In The Bay, the Spring Hill / Tampa team of Scott L. and Chris C., tore through pool play allowing only 10 points through four games to claim the #1 seed heading into the double-elimination Championship winner’s bracket. But, with all the first-class throwers in attendance, the top seed didn’t give them any breaks and they were taken down in two straight games.
The #1 seeds early exit paved the way for some other teams to make a run at the title and, after all the bags were tossed, Corn Slingers (Austin R. and Steve A.) continued their outstanding throwing in 2012 by winning the championship over the up-and-coming young team of Jon H. and Brandon P. (Crushed Corn).
The Top 5 Teams:
- CornSlingers (Austin R. and Steve A.)
- Crushed Corn (Jon H. and Brandon P.)
- Cornhole U. (Chewy and John A.)
- Grab Ur Bags (Kevin J. and Evan J.)
- Holiday Inn Express (Jason M. and Greg M.)
