Discussion: Pictures from U.S. Relay Champs

Now posted here. (Sorry, this is the dodgey server)

also, results are now up here

Are they? Haven't been able to get anything but an error message.

I got the link to work, but I didn't get the relay results. From what I have been able to piece together from Eddie's pictures (apparently everyone has been sworn to secrecy):

12-point category:
1. COC
2. ? I don't recognize the suit or the people. (HVO?)
3. ?

8-points:
1. UNO
2. WCOC
3. NEOC

4-points:
1. CSU
2. DVOA
3. HVO

to get the night-o and relay results, click on the little tabs at the bottom of the page. I guess it's like that because they used excel to generate the web page.

Thanks Ken!

They all sem to work now.

Congrats to CSU for a great race. They were over
8 minutes back after leg 2; Boris made up about
3:30, and Will made up about 4:30 (if I did my math
right), to win the race by 15 seconds. It really was
an incredible performance, especially given the
shortish courses (shortened even further by the
park/trail sprint-like terrain).

After looking at the A-meet blue map on Randy's site, I think that this meet featured some really great course setting, negotiating a gerrymandered corridor of terrain in a really nice manner.

I cannot believe you used the word 'gerrymandered' with regards to orienteering!

And yes, I think the course-setting was very good given the shape and amount of terrain the course-setters had to work with. The relay courses were fast and open, but there were still places to make mistakes at high speed. A great meet overall, well done to OME!

Course setting was good with one exception -- the Green course on Saturday, which had several obvious and unnecessary road and field runs. Poor design in comparison with Red, Blue and even Orange. Otherwise, great meet!
