2000 U.S. Nationals of Style &
Accuracy
Orange, MA
Saturday, June 10
Blue skies again! And the winner is...
...the meet finished off the final round of style to start the
day, and when the paper rolled out the printer the men's champion
was GK Brian Smith (2nd James Hayhurst, 3rd GK Chris Moore), and the
women's champion was Elisa Feldt (2nd Cheryl Stearns, 3rd Nancy
LaRiviere). The competitors thought the style judging was really
tough, but overall fairly applied. Looking over the final results, I
only see a very few style sets that were judged clean (no penalty
applied).
After the requisite 45 minutes between events, accuracy started
back up hot and heavy. It didn't last long though; the winds
gradually picked up until the competition was put on weather hold
well before noon. The weather hold was never lifted: at 3:30 p.m.,
the meet was officially bagged. Accuracy had completed seven full
rounds (they'd been halfway through eight). GK Chris Moore took the
top spot for the men and Cheryl Stearns for the women.
Here are the top overall champions (style & accuracy
combined):
Men:
- Chris Moore
- Mario Rivera
- Brian Smith
Women:
- Cheryl Stearns
- Elisa Feldt
- Cathy Miller
At this point, I must apologize for not having the overall
results for the men's junior division, which had four competitors in
it. Sorry guys!
Look for a complete report in next month's Parachutist.
And thanks for visiting OmniSkore!
