The photos above show the University of Puget Sound Wheelock Center Rotunda, and bits of the gorgeous UPS campus. It was such a bright and sunny day that the go players took refuge in the shadow of the Rotunda.
At right: from left to right: Mike LePore standing, Steve Stringfellow playing White, Mike Hughes watching, Steve Huang playing Black.
For a long while, I thought Black had this in the bag, especially
when Dr. Stringfellow went into byo-yomi. Then he unleashed a
complicated ko, and Mr. Huang went into byo-yomi while fighting it.
White ended up winning on time, to my amazement; but as far as I
could tell, White was winning on the board when time expired for Black.

Jason Baghboudarian studies the board, giving 9 stones

Richard Hu (standing) watches Steve Stringfellow (mostly hidden) and
Steve Huang playing, as do Mike LePore (standing) and Mike Hughes.
Taking a break from the onGOing action are ... shoot, I forgot her name,
but she's a friend of Greg Hatayama's, who's sitting with her. Sorry!
Same as above, except that Richard Hu is now checking out
Xiong's and Cui's game; which means that Steve Stringfellow
is a bit more visible here.
Same as above
