Wilmington, Ill.

Nationals' LCQ By Score Revised

According to the American Water Skin Association’s Rulebook, Last Chance Qualification (LCQ) by score for the 2010 GOODE Water Ski National Championships can only be achieved at a Class E, L or R tournament. However, when the parameters for LCQ by score were set this year in the national rankings list, they were inadvertently set to allow Class C scores to be used as well. For this reason, the AWSA board of directors has voted to allow the parameters as they are currently set in the rankings list to stand for this year.

Three-Year-Old Girl Qualifies For Nationals

Three-year-old Kimberly Westover of Mesa, Ariz., will be the youngest competitor to ever participate in the GOODE Water Ski National Championships when the 68th annual event takes place Aug. 8-14 at Waters Edge in Wilmington, Ill. Kimberly, who turned 3 in April, qualified in the Girls 1 (ages 9 and under) division based upon her performance at the 2010 Western Regional Water Ski Championships, July 21-24, in Caldwell, Idaho. A top-five placement at the Regionals earns an athlete a berth in the Nationals.
