Special thanks to the volunteers behind the organization of the SPICE Cup: Dr. Hal Karlsson, Dr. Rich Rice, Lucia Barbato, Peggy Flores, with the support of Dr. Juan Munoz, Office of the Provost, Office of the President, and the Office of the Chancellor. Jerry Perez, unfortunately, is out of town for a conference, and not able to participate during the tournament this time.
I still think So will win it.
