Congratulations, Team Triple Players on the win. You lived true to your name and posted a “triple-triple” word in the last week!
Thanks to all our Team Captains, some of who got to that rank by being left holding the bag, for all putting in your time and organization skills. And thanks to each and every Team Player for your patience and suggestions in helping us fine-tune our “beta test run” of this challenging Team Challenge. It certainly turned out more difficult than we were expecting.
