Team Big Cat Final Results

This year's Big Cat finish was perhaps the most memorable finish in Big Cat history.  This year's finale, the obstacle course, was one of the toughest final events ever.  Each team member was assigned one leg of the obstacle course which consisted of a 2 lap swim, 50 pullups, tire throws over a football goal post, an agility course, 75 yds of burpee frog jumps, and a 400 meter plate run.

Teams started the final event based on their finish in the preceding 5 events.  3 teams started within 30 seconds of each other:  "SAWS" led by Eric Binder, "Team Sanchez" led by Nick Pappas, and "The Gangstas of Love" led by Kevin Jackson.  In the end, it came down to these 3 teams in a race to the finish in the 400 meter plate run.

Mike Hunter from "The Gangstas of Love" was the first to start the plate run, wasn't able to hold on to a 50 meter lead to start the race.  Tyler Rockafellow from "Team Sanchez" looked to have the race in hand with about 50 meters left after passing Mike Hunter 2/3 of the way through the race, couldn't hold on to the lead and saw Senior and team captain of "SAWS" Eric Binder step across the finish line for the win and Team Big Cat Championship.

Unfortunately we were unable to capture footage of the obstacle course because the event was so scattered and the constant change of location.  You had to be there to truly understand and appreciate the dramatic finish of this year's Big Cat, but having been a part of every Big Cat Challenge to date... I can say that this year was easily the most competitive and had by far the best finish.
