Dalhausser slammed three straight blocks to open the final match en route to a 90-minute victory and the $25,000 first prize.

Scott and Lucena split $15,000.

Punahou alum Stein Metzger and Mark Williams finished tied for third and earned $9,500, while Kevin Wong, another Punahou alum, and Matt Olson were tied for fifth and earned $6,000.
