The US tournament season kicked off with the Men's Open in Harrisburg, PA on Jan. 26 and 27. It was an exciting event with many tight games, including a good share of overtimes in the semi and quarter finals. The South Jersey Gamblers won the tournament with an overtime victory against 9mm of Buffalo. Congratulations to all teams and to George Tarantino for a well run event.
