USCA Nationals States Points Results

 It was New York by a wide margin, followed by Pennsylvania in a solid second place.  Then came Michigan, Maine, and Massachusetts in quick succession, followed by a cluster of midwest states and New Hampshire.  Congratulations Empire Staters!

 I have listed our friends from Ontario (without an official “state” place) in recognition of their presence and significant performances.  Thanks for coming to play with us, Canadians.

 Paddlers in first place get 50 points, in second get 45, in third, 40, all the way to 5 points for 10^th place.  Foreigners only qualify if they have been US residents for more than two years, like your humble editor.  However, US citizens paddling with a foreigner (for example, with a Canadian or with Tony Bond!) do get points for their state, if they come in the top ten.

 Only USCA Championship marathon races count.

 Exhaustive tabulations and/or reviews by Joan Theiss, Mary Ann Pontius, Tave Lamperez, and myself. ...................................................................... Gareth Stevens
