Congrats to a great kid, I mean young man. Well deserved.

I wasn't selling anyone short. But we're only allowed so many characters in the thread title, so I left that out of the thread title so I could offer recognition to Jack for actually winning the award.

It'll be okay.

How do they do this award? Are there several players in the running who attend the banquet where the winner is announced? Or does the winner already know and he is the only player who shows up to the banquet?

If there were other finalists, could we get a list of who they were?

Thanks.
