Results of 9th Annual Battle of Saratoga, October 30, 2011

Freak nor-easter the night before left up to 20 inches of snow in parts of the Capital District and turnout was mainly people from Syracuse and Plattsburg who didn't get hit by the snow. Most local players were without power or their cars were stuck in the snow. Hyzer Creek only got 4 inches, which was melted by noon.

Results of 7th Battle of Saratoga, 2009, October 25--- [[not PDGA sanctioned]]

Heavy rain from tropical storm the day before caused heavy flooding of Hyzer Creek, so the tournament was put on advisory. Weather was clear for the tourney, but floodwaters prevented 2 round tourney. By noon the water had receded and the following 9 people played a one-round Battle Of Saratoga.

Greg Kurtz                 60      -1
Tim Jiardini                61      E
Dean Rochhio             62     +1
Morgan Wright           64     +3
Brian Lynch                66     +5
Greg Hooper               67     +6
Kenji Cline                  71     +10
Brad Bowman             77     +16
Julian Treadway          82     +21

No money exchanged hands but much fun was had by all in the flood waters.
