2009 SIOPen

The 2009 SIOPen was held at Oak Harbor Golf Club in Slidell, LA. Despite the myriad alternative activities in the enchanting city of New Orleans, 33 players on nine teams competed for the coveted Hugo Cup. Team members Sasha Chernyshenko, John Donovan, Neil Hauenstein, and Eric Heggestad took home the Cup. Several folks deserve thanks for assisting with the event this year including Dave Nershi and Linda Lentz at the SIOP Office, the staff of Oak Harbor Golf Club for hosting the event, and all those who took part in the SIOPen. I would also like to extend a special thank you to Dave Woehr for helping with the travel arrangements.
