DGLA: Michigan Cooperative Point Series - Summer 2012   August 6, 2012 at 10:59pm

Congrats! 2012 Michigan Disc Golf League Summer Champion - Mark Manard

The overall winner and 2012 Michigan Disc Golf League Summer Champion is......

You think I could do it that quickly. Ok it's been posted on the overall MiCPS-S Leaderboard for over a week but we had to give all the leagues time to make sure all the rounds were posted and correct. We had the Olympic judges and ESPN analysis help out and we are ready for the virtual award ceremony.

For the DGLA Michigan Cooperative Point Series Summer 2012
39 leagues
732 Players this summer

It was an interesting season, hotter than normal, some new twist with DGLA membership and some new awards and soon a handicap system. I had a few people ask how they could get more involved with DGLA and some of our activities. I saw new leagues and new league admin that really brought a fun vibe to the leagues. A real friendly and cooperative spirit making many of the leagues I visited fun groups of almost family and very welcoming to new players. Thanks to all the League admin and those who help them out. Being there each week after week, or ensuring someone else is and entering all the data into DGS so we all can chat, ****, boast and razz our friends and have these stats for years to come. You are the backbone of leagues and the growth of Disc Golf - Thanks

Gold, Silver and Bronze - Hopefully an Olympic event some day soon.....:
So there were three players who crossed over the 1000 point threshold to separate themselves from the rest. Playing at least 48 rounds during this 17 week season. The battle came down to the wire but when the dust cleared only 50 points separated third from first and Mike Raley had third with 1018 points, George Beno had secured second with 1032 points and Mark Manard in 55 league rounds amassed 1068 points to secure the top spot and the title of Michigan Disc Golf league Summer champion. Congratulation Mike, George and our new Champion Mark Manard!!!!!!

Now one of the side activities of DGLA is to create a MiCPS Perpetual Trophy to capture the top three achievers from each season for all to see for years to come. I had hoped that this would have been ready for this season but as many collaborative efforts life happens and things take a little longer than planned but we will add plates for all the previous MiCPS top three and these three players will be immortalized for their accomplishments and contributions to the Michigan Disc Golf leagues, because besides helping to set the bar high for all the other players and push the competitive envelope these three each give back to the sport and the players, weather they are their double partners or other competitors, these players are true Disc Golf Ambassadors - THANKS!
