Four people came to Hy-Vee to engage in some word warfare.  Bryan Benwitz emerged unscathed from the fray, winning all his games to go 4-0 +725.  He easily dominated every statistical category and played the word of the week, EVOLVES.  Maybe Scrabble should start testing for roids?  (ROIDS is phony.  Don't play it, kids)

Peter Schmiedicke came in second with a 2-2 +82, losing twice to Bryan and defeating Scott and Ruth Ann each once.
