Coaches,
The top 32 list is set for the MISCA meet Friday at Eastern Michigan University. I received over 60 entries and I've included the top 40. Any alternates will be notified immediately if any of the top 32 divers drop out. For each diver that drops, one alternate will be allowed to fill the vacated spot. The top two alternates will be allowed to warm up at the meet if they choose until all 32 athletes have checked in. The top alternates should e-mail John their dive lists as well.
Dive lists are due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. Please e-mail your dive lists (if you haven't already) in an e-dive friendly text format (examples below) to John Pearson at:
example format – follow this exactly—(the "V" designates voluntary/required dives)
"John Dover","Johnson High School",101AV,201AV,303C,103B,403C,401BV,5111AV,203B,301AV,104C,202B
"Peter Grange","Johnson High School",401CV,402C,101CV,103C,302C,301CV,201CV,5121D,5111BV,102B,202C

Warm-up begins Friday at Eastern of 4:30 p.m.
The check in deadline is 5:00 p.m. (divers not checked in by 5:00 will lose their spot in the meet)
Changes to sheets and/or signatures are due at 5:00 as well. Dive sheets will be provided for you based upon your list submission (whatever list was sent to John Pearson).
The meet will begin at 6:00 p.m. All divers will complete 11 dives.
Estimated time of finish: 9:05 p.m.
-----
DIVE COACHES MUST BE MISCA MEMBERS FOR THEIR DIVERS TO DIVE (swim coach membership is irrelevant). Forms will be available on deck - please bring cash or check to cover this expense if you're currently not a member - It's $55 for a membership purchased on the pool deck.
The entry fee is $4 per athlete; it would be best to pay for your entire team (swimmers and divers) upon check-in Friday. You may just pay for your diver(s) if you so choose and/or if your swim coach just flat out doesn't trust you with such a duty. Divers who drop out or don't show will still be charged the event entrance fee.
-----
I've created tentative judging panels for the meet. Panel A will judge rounds, 1,2,3,7,8, & 9. Panel B will judge rounds 4,5,6,10 & 11 (see top 32 list for judging panel information). If you find yourself on this panel and you really don't want to judge, please let me know. The same goes for you if you really want to judge and I didn't place you on the panel. I tried to create panels that best represent the entire state as a whole both based on geography and regional affiliation.
FYI - I will be making the judges analysis of this meet available after the meet.
There were a considerable amount of late entries that we not permitted to enter the meet. Coaches, please help to educate your colleagues about entry procedures / location of the MISCA website. As to the many recommendations I've received about format and entry procedure, there will be a space available for discussion of this at next year's MISCA clinic in September.
Please direct any questions about this meet to myself and make sure you get your lists sent to John Pearson before Wednesday. Thanks and I look forward to seeing many of you Friday.
