Welcome to the official Roots Intramural Open Week 1 Score Report, where we bring you all of the highlights from the week and announce the current leader. Sorry, we don’t have a white leader jersey for the leading team, but the bragging rights are impeccable.

This week, teams could earn points in several categories. Recurring points include: attendance points, wearing team colors (all three teams made kick-ass shirts within just two-weeks time … can we take a minute to appreciate how cool that is?), Top 5 Rx and Scaled scores, and an average of all Open scores.

This week included a pre-Open challenge of most Judges Certificates AND the Week 1 challenge: Cornhole (sorry, Connor Warman, this may be a touchy topic).

Ok, ok, we’ll cut to the chase. Who is leading the 2022 Roots Intramural Open in Week 1?!

Team “WE BLUE IT”

 

It was a close race between the Blue Team and the Green Team throughout the week. Here is the points breakdown:

We Blue It: 1226 points

VirtuJOSHity: 1146 points

Squat Lobsters: 434 points

Team “We Blue It” rose to the top in both the Judges Course challenge and the cornhole tournament, giving them 400 extra points! If you didn’t make it out to the legendary cornhole tournament on Saturday, you missed out. Eric Neeb and Shayna Larsen came to WIN, and they did not disappoint. Neeb, the blue crocs may have given you extra luck.
