Results for Valentine Score-O at UCSD
February 10, 2007


Print  |  Close Window
Despite the ominous predictions for rain, the weather cooperated to make great conditions for the 2007 Valentine-O. Thanks to everyone who came out to enjoy the day! Couples, individuals, and many families had a lot of fun exploring the UCSD campus -- a lot of folks enjoyed the garden at the south end of campus and the new Dr. Seuss statue by the library. With no controls in the woods this year, there was none of the poison oak that plagued a few orienteers (and the course setter) last year. UCSD's predominantly paved terrain makes it a great place for families, and we had a number of groups with very young children training the next generation of orienteers. We also got a bunch of first time orienteers who did extremely well, including Emile Aben in 10th overall with 1180 points. Other great new competitors included a pair of ultimate frisbee players (one in a clown ballerina costume!) who placed 10th in the group competition after a 3 hours of running in a team practice in the morning.

Competition was fierce in the individual category, with Josh Williams edging out his wife Veronica by 50 seconds for the overall win. Other great moments in orienteering included Polly Lebl avoiding a time penalty by coming in exactly at her course time limit -- down to the second. Now that's some mighty impressive time planning! Matej Sebo did a great job coming in 9th with 1205 points immediately following a second place finish on the Level 2 course at the Junior Orienteering event.

No orienteering event is possible without many hours of volunteer labor. Many thanks to the folks who made the 2007 Valentine-O great!

David and I were glad to return as meet Co-Directors after a one year hiatus -- last year we ended up having a baby instead of an orienteering meet! We hope to see you all again next year!
