Hi Everyone, this is Dennis and Brandon the Meet Directors from Mt. Hood LC Nationals this past weekend. We would like to thank all the swimmers for coming and swimming so fast in our new tank.
Thank you to the folks at USMS, you were so incredible to work with.
Thank you to our Organizing Committee. they worked really hard on very hot days. 2 years planning, all done, WOW. Nationals Enquirer, WOW.
Thank you to the amazing volunteers that were all over the place.
The Announcers were really on their game, thanks guys.
A big thank you to the Sponsors it was fun meeting and working with you all.
Lastly, we would like to thank the Officials. It was a All Star group and they did outstanding.
Good luck to all and thanks again, see you at Convention.
DB/BD
We still need some sort of request system in order to show splits as separate swims in this database, and it should be developed for next year's nationals. It will only apply to those who want an initial split to show up in the database as a separate swim.
Thanks for the explanation, Jim. Your reasoning of why initial splits should not included automatically in the current Event Rankings makes a lot of sense -- the cases where a person uses the first 50 of a 200 (say) for an official time is the exception, not the rule.
But I would think that relay leadoff splits SHOULD be automatically included because the same reasoning doesn't really apply to them: people usually swim their relay leg as fast as they can.
