2009 Pio Pong Tournament

Pio Pong 2009 proved to be an immensely successful single elimination tournament of Gatorade pong. 30 teams of two, a total of 60 participants, from coaches and staff members to students of all majors and interests competed for the coveted title of Pio Pong champions 2009. This honor, and the fantastic trophy, went to the team of Stella Gilliland and Natalie Stratton, both members of the women’s soccer team.

Gallons of Gatorade were consumed in the battle for the trophy as well as the quest to stay hydrated before finals week. Dr. Janis Lochner spoke to the participants about the effects of alcohol on the body and the importance of hydration just prior to the final match. The tournament proved exciting for all, and the start of a great tradition. The “be a G, stay hydrated” shirts will be worn proudly by all participants and we encourage all students to plan on participating in the annual Pio Pong tournament next year!
