Pitt Goes to Gary Fries

Petko Takes Masters

Gary Fries of Falls Church, Virginia went 8–1 in the modified Swiss format to capture the Pittsburgh Championships. Rob Meier and an excellent staff ran the event that fielded 147 main tourney players—a small attendance increase from 2009. Once again, the Holiday Inn-Airport in Moon Township played host to the 18–21 February event and ABT Awards Ceremony.
