For the second year in a row, SSTY has put up points in both Men's and Women's divisions at the US Open.  This year's final scores:   Women: 53rd Men: 23rd Combined: 20th While 20th may not sound overwhelming take a minute to see who was ahead of our favorite sports team .  Six non-university-based clubs are ahead (the one you can't figure is a Welsh National Team.)  We are doing pretty good for clubs who receive more than trace amounts of snow annually too!
