Junior Olympics, Memphis

[fdad]

I actually started trying to figure it out...
But then I found that for Junior Team Div 1 SN counts and for Cadet Team it doesn't (but all other Div 1s this season do), and then my head exploded.

Ms. L. Kiefer has 6463 points from 4 G1 events (lowest of 552) and 4 G2 events (lowest of 736).
Ms. Lu has 5753 points from 4 G1 events (lowest of 600) and 4 G2 events (lowest of 531).
Ms. Zeiss has 4209 points from 4 G1 events (lowest of 340) and 4 G2 events (lowest of 571).
Ms. Shaito has 3349 points from 4 G1 events (lowest of 368) and 2 G2 events.
Ms. Taffel has 2348 points from 4 G1 events (lowest of 300) and 2 G2 events.

Again, the max points from Lyon would be 1200 (assuming max SF of 2.0).
The max points from CWF at JOs would be 400.
The max points form JWF at JOs would be 600.
There is no team alternate for Cadet so only top 3 qualify.

From Lyon the max points for each fencer are:
Ms. L. Keifer: +464
Ms. Lu: +669
Ms. Zeiss: +629
Ms. Shaito: +1200
Ms. Taffel: +1200

From JWF @ JO the max points for each fencer are:
Ms. L. Keifer: +48
Ms. Lu: 0
Ms. Zeiss: +260
Ms. Shaito: +232
Ms. Taffel: +300

From CWF @ JO the max points for each fencer are:
Ms. L. Keifer: 0
Ms. Lu: 0
Ms. Zeiss: +60
Ms. Shaito: +32
Ms. Taffel: +100

Of course, if a fencer gets the max from JWF @ JO the max from CWF @ JO is lower:
Ms. L. Keifer: 0
Ms. Lu: 0
Ms. Zeiss: 0
Ms. Shaito: 0
Ms. Taffel: +94

So, assuming the current top 3 get 0 points from Lyon and JOs, the max for the next two are:
Ms. Shaito: 4781
Ms. Taffel: 3942

Therefore, ...
Ms. L. Keifer and Ms. Lu are safe in the top 3.
Ms. Shaito can pass Ms. Zeiss.
Ms. Taffel cannot pass Ms. Zeiss.

How are things going this morning? Are events starting on time (sounded like the armorers had some trouble getting in on time)? Are there many no shows?

[hello?]

Looks like even more weather problems are in store for the weekend! Flights in Atlanta canceled today...

28 no shows in jms. JMS team - Homer, Prochniak, Arzoian. Very close points in contention to the end.

Anyone know anything about men's foil results?

[brtech]

Setup was long: we didn't have enough volunteers to start laying strips until 3, and we weren't finished until around 8. Then the hotel restaurant was swamped, because USFA had told them they expected a smaller crowd due to weather, but even so, there were a lot of guests.

I had 8 armorers including volunteers, but the line got up to around 45 minutes. Although it appeared we were holding up start of fencing, the number of no-shows caused a long delay to reseed.

The rest of the day has gone smoothly, although they say we won't be done until around 9:30 tonight.

We're taking a couple of videos when we can.

Flip video of JMS Semifinals going up now. Had to run back to the booth so missed filming the final.

No results even here in memphis. CMF ran pretty late.

Does someone have video the other JMS finals bouts? Any chance of posting those? Many video cameras in the room............ nothing apparently on youtube. Thanks.

Six teams excluded in JME Team? What happened?
