LEAWOOD, KS -- Eight players have qualified and accepted bids to play in the MCA Silver Championship on September 13, 2014, in Belton, Missouri. The matchups follow:
Tuesday, September 2, 2014 at 6:55AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Nate Benz has a commanding lead in the newly formed and highly popular Silver Division as we head into the final event of the 2014 MCA season. Currently, Benz has 214 points, but it is mathematically possible for Justin Marciniak to catch up as he trails by 59 points with 155.
Friday, August 29, 2014 at 7:15AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Several Gold-Eligible players opted for the Pro Playoff, but four evenly-matched players will head into battle at the MCA Gold Championship on September 13, 2014, in Belton, Missouri. The matchups follow:
Friday, August 29, 2014 at 7:05AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Despite missing the KC Open, Taylor Airrington still has a strong lead in the Gold Points race with 174 points. Debbie Breeden and Deborah Millican are 42 points back at 132, but Millican is opting to play in the Pro Championship on September 13. Bill Berg is within reach as well as he follows closely at 125 points. With only two rounds though for the Gold Playoff, everyone will be hoping Airrington loses in the first round in order to have a shot at catching him.
Wednesday, August 27, 2014 at 12:02PM LEAWOOD, KS -- Eight players have qualified and accepted bids to play in the MCA Pro Championship on September 13, 2014, in Belton, Missouri. The matchups follow:
Tuesday, August 26, 2014 at 7:00AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Although he failed to make the final at the KC Open earlier this month, Dylan Goodwin earned enough points to clinch the overall pro points race, which is sponsored his Goodwin World Media company. Only 96 points will be available at the MCA Championship and with 428 points, Goodwin now holds a 130 point lead over Greg Adams (298) in second place.
Sunday, August 3, 2014 at 8:00PM PARKVILLE, MO -- Matt Griffith had to work hard in the final, but he defended his home court in a back and forth 22-21 thriller over last year's MCA Champion Paul Miller on Sunday at the Kactus Creek Croquet Club in Parkville, Missouri. It was Griffith's first MCA Nine Wicket Series appearance and Miller's first appearance since his MCA Championship win last September.
Saturday, August 2, 2014 at 6:24PM PARKVILLE, MO -- Nate Benz survived a field of nine to claim the Kansas City Open Silver Division title with a 10-8 win over Steve Jackson. The win was the third straight Silver title for Benz and should help extend his lead in the Silver Points race.
Benz and Jackson played a tight game for the full 50-minutes in front of a nice gallery on the Kactus Creek Croquet Club veranda which sits right up next to the court. Most of the Silver Division players stayed to watch the final and several of the Pro-Gold players came by to enjoy the action as well.
