Whether it was the long delay or just coincidence, all three teams got off to rough starts on Sunday. In the AAA Class, CSC Rubicon (Rich Madsen, Brian Darnell, Laurent Beaudouin, Steve Lefkowitz, Kevin Nafztger-v) started slowly, but then put together four solid closing rounds for a total of 45 points.
Steve only graduated from the CSC student program last summer and has successfully made the huge leap to the AAA Class in the NSL with its complete dive pool, slot switchers and occasional 12-point non-repeaters.
Our third team was the Rookie Class team CSC Dropouts (Brad Fowler, Butch Connelly, Ben Jacob, David Crowe, Troy Church – v). Meet 4 included challenging exits for the Rookie Class in nearly every round, and the Dropouts had their hands full trying to adapt. The Dropouts made progress, but unfortunately they were shut out in this meet.
Would-be AA Class competitors Just4Fun (whose point could not jump on Sunday) won the MWSL special award for dedication by flying to Baldwin to jump the draw once it became clear that the weather would not allow them to make it to Hinckley. Alas, such determination to compete won our respect but did not permit them to make it onto the Meet 4 scoreboard.
Chicagoland Skydiving once again were great hosts for the MWSL in 2006. Our thanks to Lisa, Melissa, Doug, TD and the rest of the CSC staff; we look forward to seeing you all again in 2007. While this was the last MWSL meet at CSC, remember that the MWSL is holding 4-way Scrambles here on September 9th. Anyone with at least a "B" license is eligible to participate. There is no fee, but there is a $10 deposit to hold your slot. Contact me or CSC to sign up.
The MWSL has only one meet left this season: Meet 5/NSL Playoffs weekend at Sky Knights SPC in East Troy, Wisconsin. Our Meet Coach, courtesy of Sky Knights and the MWSL, is Airspeed's Todd Hawkins, so be sure not to miss this great opportunity for world class coaching. See you soon.
