The 23rd Space Operations Squadron defeated the 6th Space Warning Squadron in the annual New England Space Cup, a golf tournament at Highfields Golf and Country Club in Grafton, Massachusetts, May 9.
While the 23rd SOPS was happy to go home with a trophy, they were even happier to avoid having to take home the ugly rug, a “hideous” symbol of defeat for the event’s losers. According to tradition, the rug must be prominently displayed in the losing squadron’s director of operation’s office until the next year’s tournament.
