Braeden E. Ward, 2026
Throughout the Gradhog Games, it was obvious that one player had the dedication that was required to join the prestigious hall of fame. From portal diving, to tree climbing, to pepper eating and more, Braeden came in to the Games knowing what he wanted. His fellow teammates on Team BGSU agreed - as well as those on Team NoRo. Ultimately, Judge Fial ruled in favor of him during Round X: Court. Braeden was awarded with a trophy, a treasure chest, as well as a personal letter from the host congratulating him on his efforts.
Bradyn M. DeLorenzo, 2026
After braving the fire & ice, Bradyn, a member of Team Winter, went into the final round with determination. After a one-on-one battle, he dodged a fire ball and hammered the ice ball, claiming the third annual Grandhog title. Bradyn was awarded with a plaque, as well as a participation award.
Nicholas T. Echols, 2025
Nick, a proud member of Team Spring, pushed through all the challenges the games threw at him. After being discouraged at the results, he carried on during Sudden Death, and was able to find the groundhog after a strenuous hunt. It turns out, the groundhog was in such an obvious spot that no one thought of it except for Nick. Nick was awarded with a trophy, as well as a participation award.
Benjamin B. Wislocki, 2024
The first ever Groundhog Games started off with a sense of uncertainty, but as the Games went on, it was clear that one player had their heart set on the prize. Ben, proudly representing the Right Team, used his advanced trigonometry skills to pull the team ahead during Round IX. It was a close call, but he would use his quick movements to win the Final Round of Musical Chairs. Ben was awarded with a trophy, as well as a participation award.
