Kerns congratulates the team co-champions Stanford and Pepperdine, who tied for first place, and the individual champion Lion Higo from Pepperdine. Kerns provided the beautiful Baccarat “trophies” for the champions. The first place trophy, the magnificent Baccarat Marengo Horse, is a permanent trophy that will be retained by the tournament. This exceptional piece, designed by Allison Hawkes and inspired by French history, shows the legendary horse and favorite mount of Napoleon Bonaparte. It is named after the Emperor's famous victory at the battle of Marengo. Other Baccarat pieces presented as trophies included: the Spiral Vase, the Gingko Vase, and Lucky Butterflies in red and amber.
In addition, Kerns presented each competitor and their coaches with a Tee Prize – a beautiful Amoré Magnete Bracelet accompanied by a reusable Kerns jewelry pouch.
