Former Luers Player Makes Final of AVP Chicago


Cut and pasted with permission from Fort Wayne African-American Independent Woman blog here.

Angie Akers formerly of Fort Wayne, Indiana and her partner, Brooke Hanson could not beat the veterans, Annett Davis and Jenny Johnson Jordan in the McDonald's AVP Chicago Open presented by Nautica.


Despite being the big target in a field that didn't include Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh, Johnson Jordan and Davis never blinked. In workmanlike fashion, they took out Angie Akers and Brooke Hanson, 21-16, 24-22, to claim the Chicago Open on Sunday and split a winner's share of $28,000.

Marriage Proposal Last Night


There was a marriage proposal in the league last night, and it was accepted. Congratulations to Annie and Bill... Unfortunately, I was at the Plex reffing and missed the whole thing. Apparently, it attracted a circle of attention and was rather dramatic.

I also had the former manager of the bar with the third largest sales in alcohol in town ref for the first time last night and he said this is the best kept secret in Fort Wayne. I haven't missed that...
