The Buzz, a team that entered the ESPN UBO Summer Classic with the lowest experience total of all eight competing teams, beat the Coders 3-2 to walk away with Apple iPod mini portable music players. The second place 'Coder' team received autographed baseball bats from former World Champion and two-time all star Darrell Evans.
