Siver was winning this kinda a bit early, then Hall went all subby, and Siver does not have the development to take care of that whole thing. Hall also locks in another high level submission, making our sub of the year nominations more challenging. Slow down, guys. 2 events in.
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
