The Dynamic Duo of Stephen and Stephen Win the 2016 CSP, Inc. Cornhole Cup!

Stephen Allen and Stephen Riddick (aka) the “Stephens” completed a masterful run on Friday, October 28th, by claiming CSP’s 2016 Cornhole Cup.  The pair earned the title by winning an intense, 10-Team double elimination tournament. They successfully navigated the bracket in an undefeated fashion.  The victory was the second in a row for Stephen Riddick who won the tournament with Katie in 2015.

CSP, Inc. had ten teams, randomly selected from various departments, participating in this year’s tournament.  With this being a double eliminations tournament; the games were played weekly, until the bracket reached the finals in late October. The Cup Finals consisted of the “Stephens”, in a back-and-forth match against Team Marc Gillet and Rich Yoest. The finals were a microcosm of the tournament, highlighted by skillful play, friendly banter and intense competition.

In the finals, Marc and Rich gave a spirited performance, but couldn’t overcome the skill and precision of the two Stephens.  It was truly a team effort in the win.  Stephen Riddick set the stage early with a few ringers.  Stephen Allen then caught fire and closed out the match with a few ringers of his own.  Both teams then heated up with some epic tosses and rebuttals.  Ultimately, the Stephens clinched the title with a final score of 21 to 15.

In the midst of the celebration, Stephen Riddick was quoted as saying, “Stephen Allen was just incredible today.  He carried me when I cooled off after a hot start.  It was truly a team effort.”

The tournament was enjoyed by all participants and proved to be a great success.  While professionalism is paramount in its business relationships, CSP believes that cultivating a fun environment is an important part of its corporate culture.  Plus, the event served as a great platform for cross-departmental team building by randomly selecting partners from varying departments.

Tournament organizer, Margie Figueroa, expressed her thoughts, “It was a fun event that exemplifies our core values here at CSP, Inc. The passion was contagious! Everyone enjoyed the friendly rivalries and competitive banter throughout the tournament.”
