The Barracudas scored 374 points to roll past the Greyhounds (344) and win the 10-team Invitational. Here is a look at the top three finishers.

"We had a rough day as a team," coach William Twitchell said. "Fortunately we had solid performances out of Erik Wahlgren, William Sass and Dan Lee. This type of meet rewards the depth of the team and we had just enough."
