  However,  Illinois has 15 top 3 finishes overall, compared to 5 from Minnesota, right Jerry?  Texax Roadhouse, HERE WE COME!!!

There's lots of shoes to be thrown yet Mr. Bill

   Jerry - ready to double down?

[Jerry]

Well, it looks like the trophy count tightened up after the second three days between Mn and Illinois. Let's see how the shoes fall in this next session.....there's still hope!!

 :)The only fair way to calculate the winningest state is to take into account the number of players entered from each state in relation to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishes.   Maybe give more points to 1st, and fewer to 2nd and 3rd.   Fun anyway to look at this for bragging rights.

  Minnesota had more entries, but Illinois gave them odds by betting straight up.  Total count is not in yet, and it WILL be close.

   Looks like the final trophy count will be Illinois 28 Minnesota 26;  thanx to all the Illinois pitchers, Deanna and I will be guest of Jerry LaBrosse to a fine steak dinner in Monroe!!   YEEEE HAWWWW!!!

[Jerry]

Hats off to the Illinois pitchers for the great job you did in Cedar Rapids. It was a close race and a lot of fun. I'll start searching for a suitable steakhouse Bill !!!
