    They awarded D's and E's at SN. I thought they could at SuperRegionals also.
    Whoopee! My avatar is back.

    I don't see how you can be sure that the D & E holding Y10 fencers didn't earn them in (for instance) a legit C1 tournament somewhere. Am I missing some part of the information you are looking at?

    Oh, are you pointing at this?:

    Interesting. Anyone know if the event classification rules in question have exceptions for the national championships and/or super regionals, as fencerbill was suggesting?

    MiniMo: what event was it in which you earned that D06?

    Nationals 2006, Y10 ME. But I also won a SYC and i did NOT earn a rating.



    Y12 ME tucson also had a D1 event for Y12 ME. So it would seem an exception would apply to NAC s as well.

    That is correct except for the National Competitions (i.e.: NACs, JOs, SNs).

    Oh, you mean there's an exception at national level tournaments?
