The finals were two out of three games to 21 points. The team of Conrad Damon and Eric Prather played Harvey Brandt and Cody Kirkland. Conditions were excellent, having settled down after a blustery day.

Here's yet another attempt to break down scoring in DDC, into common ways of throwing out and defensive mistakes. Most of the categories are self-explanatory. I considered a "bail" to be any disc that a player lets land in, for any reason - they may have thought it was out, or were concerned about getting doubled. In general I set the bar high for the defense - a team is expected to escape everything unless a clear winner was thrown.
