$2500 Spring Shootout - Charlotte, NC

4/14/2013

This regional event is one of our regular stops on Sandy's dart tour and this year we chose to commute from home both days. She played well at times winning both singles titles to give her 7 on the year. She was able to team with Heidi Channel for the first time and they won ladies Cricket doubles and finished 2nd in 501. She played with hubby Chuck and made a run to the Top 4 in Cricket but lost in the second round in 501. Strangely she was recycled and drew Heidi's son, youth player Logan Channel but couldn't advance from there. All in all she won 3 events, had a runner-up and Top 4 in 6 events winning over 10% of the total purse. This was her last event before getting an MRI done this week to determine the extent of her knee injury.

$5000 Shoot for the Cure - Monroe, Ga.

4/6/2013

Sandy made a quick day trip to Monroe, Ga to support a great cause, Bryce's Insulin Army which raises money and awareness for juvenile diabetes. She had to miss her league's local ADO playoff to do so but felt the cause was that important.
This was the inaugural tournament for this cause and she hopes to be able to play in these events going forward. The trip was put together on short notice and she played with local league members who also chose to skip the local playoff. Her and "The Usual Suspects" teammate John Liggett teamed with George Alvarado but lost in the first round of 601 Triples. She and her teammate on the Greenville Premier Dart Association Ladies travel team, Kelly Turner ,made a run to the finals in Cricket but lost a tough third leg to finish as runner-up. She won Ladies Cricket, her 5th singles title of the year and 57th of her career. She also bought a picture with a $50.00 donation. With family plans on Sunday she could only attend one day but was so happy she did.
