GM's Notes:
Once again the Aardvarx fell victim to early game nerves but soon steadied the ship. A stand-out performance from Kenny Armstrong resulted in a well-earned MVP award, but the team as a whole performed well. Whilst still lacking in a few areas, this game showed some progress in the fundamentals and the new record for lowest losing margin is something of an achievement, even if the elusive win is not yet forthcoming.
