Our big winner this year was Linda Talley, who's bid of $500 won an Authentic Heather O'Reilly jersey signed by the US Women's National team.  This is the same team that were finalists in the World Cup this past summer, with Heather O'Reilly starting and playing in nearly every game at right outside midfield. 

Linda also wore the jersey to the USA vs. Sweden game in Wolfsburg, Germany, alongside me (tournament director Andrea Richmond) in my  Cat Whitehill jersey that was auctioned off in 2010.  Michael Watters won that jersey with a bid of $500 and gave it to me as a gift for putting the tournament on in memory of his twin sister, Melinda. 

A big thanks to Heather O'Reilly for providing the jerseys for auctioning.  Thanks to her, we have raised an additional $1,000 for our tournament.
