Technology's first win inthe Cup series. They had finished
second in the Small Division in 1996, but had finished no higher
than sixth since the divisions were combined in 1997. Though
their only individual win this year came in Billiards, they
competed and did well in every event. Their final score of 93.75
was 5.25 better than second place Birmingham Group. Birmingham
Group is a three time Corporate Cup winner. Defending Champion
TEAM, Inc. finished third with a score of 85. Rifkin Travel
posted their best finish effort with 75.5 points - good for
fourth place. United Illuminating rounded out the top five with
66.5 points.
At the awards ceremony, it was also announced
that the Healthy Team competition was won by Sue Reilly and Ron
Barisano. The YMCA and Boy Scout execs teamed up to post an
impressive victory, and many competitors had the opportunity to
see the pair working out regularly in the gym at the Y. Watch

are also offered during the course of the event.
