Here we are at the halfway point for 2019! All but 7 teams have hit the scoreboard. Team 43 maintains its lead and inched up just a bit. Teams 35, 33, and 2 made large jumps into the top echelon. It's still anyone's game!

We'd like to take a moment to remind everyone of the Rules and the Dirty Dozen. Please send us qualifying obits; any others are just a waste of your time. Thanks!
