Since the plant was clearly killed by frost overnight, pulled it out. Actually was going to leave the root in the ground to decompose, but when I cut the vine lo and behold there was a borer grub inside. So, pulled the whole plant out. Found a second borer (a big one) and there may have been more, I didn't check too closely.
This would explain why the plant hadn't done much lately.
This plant was one of the few zucchinis that were never tulled, so it's not surprising. Actually it's more surprising that it lasted this long.
