The tournament was made up of 8 teams, and the goal was to raise $3,000.

"We're having a kickball tournament to benefit THON so we have eight teams here coming out to play, double elimination, the winner gets $100, and yeah, all the money goes to THON," said Grace Stempien, event organizer.

All the money raised here at the kickball tournament goes directly to THON.
