CENTRAL REGION SHOW SKI TOURNAMENT RESULTS

The Backwater Gamblers are back on top in the Central Region for the first time since 1995!

At the Central Region Show Ski Tournament held July 12 and 13 at Loves Park, IL, the Backwater Gamblers brought home the first place trophy.

It was a true team effort as the club skied a very clean show with only minor falls. The show was well produced and included First Place showings for Best Towboat driving, Sound & Audio, Pick-up Boat Crew and Overall Show. The Gamblers also successfully pulled 6 skiers around the boat using a twin outboard rig and also pulled off a very nice 4-3-4 final pyramid.

The victory is even more special as the Gamblers managed to finish ahead of one of the best teams in the nation - Wonder Lake. Wonder Lake finished 2nd in the nation at the 2002 Division I Nationals. Watch for more news as the 2003 National Tournament is fast approaching.
