Event Results

Note: in order to manage the large field of competitors and provide good conditions for all at this championship event, competitors are split into several groups by age and gender. The groupings are A (men 21-54, classes 1-5), B (men 55-64, classes 6-8), C (all women), and D (men 65+, classes 9-14). The SG and the GS events are run on two courses to separate the younger A/B classes from the C/D groups of older men and all ladies, while in the SL each group competes on their own course.

NOTE: Corrected results posted Sun 2/18 -  Several corrections to the original posted results have been published - the corrections had no effect on event or class combined medals or Divisions Cup results. The original AC data incorrectly had SG run times rounded to hundredths; all AC results have been reposted with the correct SG times. One correction was made to the C/D results - Scott Pyles (M10, CN) contacted us to report that he should have been recorded DSQ1 in the C/D GS; the correction moved Greg Gill and Anthony Bouscaren up one place to 6th and 7th positions, respectively. [Thank you Scott for your sportmanship and consideration for correct reporting of your competitors results!]

The age class combined champions are awarded according to total race points in the triple-combined disciplines SG-GS-SL contested at the national championships. SC is also included in Divisions Cup and National Masters team (aka "Spyder team") scoring.
