"Things really went well today. Everyone had a great time and I received so many positive responses," said Morristown Coach Dustin Denesha.
"We are always working do things better and the first thing we are going to do was move the tournament back to a Saturday so we don't have conflicts with softball, baseball and proms and other things. I to thank the people from Lisbon for bringing over equipment which we really needed to hold the event."
The format of the tournament saw shooters from all the teams competing for honors in a Blind Draw Division and the teams competing for the massive BLFGC Team Championship Tournament. Inside the Community Building a Craft and Vendor Fair was held with refreshments offered inside and outside.
