Rothman Reigns Again

Ben Rothman took his second singles title in USCA's American Rules National championship today with a 26-10, 26-7 win over Danny Huneycutt. On the doubles side, Rothman and partner Brian Cumming defeated Rich Curtis and Doug Grimsley 26-2 to win the doubles title.

Rothman last won the U.S. rules single title in 2010, the same year that he won the GC National Championship. That double championship accomplishment in 2010 put him in the same club as Mik Mehas who won the American Rules and Association USCA titles in 1998.

Here's how I think the final bracket worked out. Rothman and Huneycutt came from the winner's side:

The winner's side is now down to a final four. The loser's side has the following matchups:

Wassink vs Mead, Abdelwahab vs Quimby, Cumming vs Brackett, Ruby vs Bennett

Evidently, there is a loser's bracket that works back in here. I won't speculate on that, but here is how the winner's side looks:

Getting word now that this bracket may not be valid ... it appears that there may be a loser bracket that plays back in.
