2000 Oskie Rice Memorial Tournament:
The Teams:
| Haleakala Ranch | Kaonoulu Ranch |
| Bob Nooney Scott Mackay Emiliano Achaval |
Joey Brittain Donald DeCoite Wesley DeCoite |
The Oskie Rice Memorial was played this year on Sunday may 21 st. The teams
were eager to play representing the 2 traditional ranches. Joey Britain was
awarded the MVP trophy after the game by the Rice family. He very well deserved
it! With only one chukker left to play, and down by 4 goals, Britain moved up
to the number 1 position, and quickly scored 4 goals to tie the game. The final
score being 10 to 9. Both teams played well, but at the end of the day, Kaonoulu
Ranch players had assured that their names will be inscribed on the perpetual trophy.
It proved to be an awesome game for the crowd on hand.
The Maui Polo Club would like to thank the Rice & Peterson families for
sponsoring this 2000 Oskie Rice Memorial, the BBQ after the game was great!!
