LJ, Mandrell L. (Keewenaw Academy) 19-6 (a notable difficulty for both of us statisticians in the state. The Keewenaw Academy is a juvenile prison camp/school, allowed into competition at the last minute this season. State privacy laws mandate that because the athletes are juvenile offenders, their last names cannot be released. At least we have a first name and initial for the history books--that's better than "John Doe.")
