Pacific Northwest Handball

2005 Pacific Northwest Regionals

The 2005 Pacific Northwest Regional Tournament was held at the Multnomah Athletic Club in Portland April 29 – May 1st. The MAC handball club volunteered to host the tournament at the last minute when the scheduled venue in Boise Idaho was closed. Sean Lenning won his 2nd PNW Region “Open” title when he defeated Ryan Grossenbacher in the finals 21-17, 21-16.
Sean reaffirmed he is the best in the Northwest with an awesome display of two-handed power serves and kills. There was no quit in Ryan but Sean seemed to come up with the shots when he needed them. The “Open “ doubles final featured a couple of teams with Golden master eligible players on each side. Glenn Carden and Jim Wainwright managed to sneak by Dave Steinberg and Troy Peterson 21-20 , 21-20.
