The Huron Daily Tribune Facebook/Blog Football contest, presented by Tri County Equipment, came to an exciting end. Dave Lester took the lead last week and was able to hold to secure himself $120. Lester held off Paul Adams, Robert Rockefeller and Dave Green. Meanwhile, Robert Rockefeller was nearly perfect, as he racked up 450 points to capture the final weekly prize of $20. Robert, please email Paul Adams at padams@hearstnp.com with your address for your prize.
As we conclude this season, I want to thank everyone for playing. It was a learning experience for me and thanks for your patience. I will probably tweak a few things, including asking those who have been emailing me their picks to either post them on the blog or Facebook. As for how the contest is played, it will not be changing. Meaning, the picks will be made public on the blog or Facebook. I will likely be staying with the 500 point system.
Finally, thank you to Tri County Equipment for stepping up and sponsoring the contest. Without the sponsor, this contest would not be possible. If I can secure multiple sponsors next year, the prize money will grow and we will be able to award money to a weekly runner-up, as well as more places at the end of the season.
Again, thank all of you for playing, it's been a lot of fun.
