Henry Muto Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Henry Muto Wins 2023 NFFC Cutline Championship & $75,000 Quote Post by Greg Ambrosius » Tue Jan 02, 2024 11:34 am Henry Muto of Geneva, Ohio won the 2023 NFFC Cutline Championship and that $75,000 grand prize, becoming our 11th different national champion in the 11-year history of this contest. Henry beat a field of 1,720 teams to win the grand prize as his team was consistently at the top of the standings all year long. When the final table of 12 owners was completed on Sunday Night, Henry was standing at the top and holding the $75,000 grand prize. This is a fun survivor-style contest where the field is whittled in half after Week 10 and then whittled further after Weeks 12, 14, 15 and 16. After Week 16, there is a "final table" of 12 owners battling for the vast majority of the prize pool. Henry actually had two teams in the Final 12 and those teams finished 1st and 4th overall. Well done Henry. Henry has had good success in this contest in the past and he was ALL IN on this contest in 2023. He took 16 teams and won 7 league titles and finished second in two others, including this championship team. Nine teams made the Championship Round and 6 teams were in the Consolation Round. His Muskrats team finished the regular season in 204th place overall, but he had other teams that were 9th and 31st overall. In fact, this Muskrats team that won the $75,000 grand prize is a perfect example of how you can never give up in the NFFC Cutline Championship. After the first "cut" in Week 12, Henry's Muskrats team was 42nd overall and four teams survived that first cut. All four teams survived the "cut" in Week 14 and his Muskrats team had moved up to 28th overall. Three of his teams survived the "cut" after Week 15, but this Muskrats team was NOT one of them as it finished 78th overall that week. It moved down to the Consolation Round, where its only shot at winning the grand prize would be winning the Consolation Round in Week 16. And of course, that's exactly what happened. Henry's Wolves team won the Championship Round in Week 16 with 567.66 points and his Muskrats team won the Consolation Round with 556.46 points to jump back into the Championship Round. In Week 17, that team scored 190.25 points to win the $75,000 grand prize with a total of 536.95 points, finishing 4.92 points ahead of Wayne Culley, who won $20,000. Devin Heesch finished 3rd to win $17,500 and Henry finished 4th to win $15,000. All 12 finalists earned prize money, while we also paid the Top 12 finishers in the Wild Card Tier. David Webb won the Wild Card Tier to earn $3,000. The Muskrats were led in Week 17 by Lamar Jackson's 49.55 points, but Henry also got 27.60 from Breece Hall and 22.10 from Amon Ra-St. Brown. His 190.25 points were 12.50 more points than Wayne Culley scored in Week 17 and the highest total from that week. Henry Muto is a veteran NFFC player who first joined our contests in 2009. He now is a two-time national champion in the NFFC as he also won the $100,000 grand prize in the Rotowire Online Championship in 2012. He has battled for this Cutline title and come close to winning it multiple times, including last year when he was at the "final table" and finished 6th overall. He also finished 11th overall in 2021. But this year he had two shots at the top prize and won it with his Muskrats team, while finishing 4th overall with his other team. Well done Henry. We will be back with the Cutline in 2024 with another $75,000 grand prize and we expect a bigger year for this contest. Best Ball leagues are flourishing throughout the industry, but no contest has the survivor-style format like we have in the NFFC Cutline Championship. Thanks all and congrats to everyone who won money in this contest.
