John Yancy beats Rosie, wins $50 gift card to Sermet's

This week’s winner of the Pigskin Challenge is John Yancy. John, who recently retired from the furniture business in N. Carolina, moved with his wife Anne to Daniel Island to be closer to family and was one of only 16 entrants to beat Rosie Stieby’s record of 7-5 this week. There were a lot of upsets in the NFL, and many entrants went with the favorites. Of those entrants that beat Rosie, six people had nine wins. Those six were Greg Turner, David Champ, Garth Cook, John Yancy, Ron DiBella and Louise Pool. Yancy won the tie-breaker, with most folks predicting a much higher score than the 10-17 Kentucky victory over South Carolina.

“This was my first time in the pick ‘em challenge. I decided to do this since my daughter and her family are part of the challenge this year, and we have been following their picks as well,” John explained.

Each week from now until the Super Bowl, readers will be given the opportunity to “Beat the Sponsor” and to win great prizes. We will email a link to the survey each Monday via a Daniel Island News eblast and we will also put the URL link on our Facebook page and here in the paper. To be eligible to win, you must select your entries online by noon on Friday. There is no cost to enter. If you’d like to be added to our eblast, please send your email address to sdetar@thedanielislandnews.com.

To enter, go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JDVLGH7 and fill out your ballot.

Each week, we will also include a running win-loss record for each of our sponsor and the paper will donate $500 to the charity of choice of the sponsor who has the best overall win-loss record at the end of the season. In the sponsor competition, Robert VanNewkirk dropped from first to second after a tough 5-7 week with Drs. Jackson and Basha moving into a one point game lead over VanNewkirk.

This week is your opportunity to beat Robert VanNewkirk of CrossFit Discovery for an opportunity to win a complimentary consultation and Group Kickstart Program to CrossFit Discovery, a package valued at $199.
