Because two players (out of an original six) ended up unavailable to continue the 8th Action, we ended it and started a new one!
The 8.5th Action was won by Michael Mills, sweeping the field with a perfect 3.0/3. Abhinav Suresh and John Hartmann followed with 2.0/3.
Full results for both the 8th and 8.5th Action are available at:

Ferro will not be available for rds 5-6, and Williams may not make it back from TX in time. If that happens, we may abandon the 8th Action where it stands and play a four person quad. More details Monday night.
