There are two kids that I coach that both finished 4th in a matter of 30 minutes of each other and neither advanced. Both in CWOSSA, a midget boy and a junior girl. Worse, the junior girl was on the third place team. Those are the breaks. yea .. i wasnt 4th i was 6th, but when we found out my team beat pickering we were pumped because we thought we made it.. then we found out Courtice beat us lol .. it was a let down lol .. |

That is pretty scary when an entire group can do the wrong course in a qualifying race. Cutting a race short when 1st-3rd are separated by 3 seconds can change the entire outcome of the race. It looks like they were far enough ahead of 4th that it likely didn't impact the qualifiers though. |

EOSSAA today was a rain soaked marathon....nasty weather with tons of teams hit hard by the flu...
Summary:
Likely the strongest teams seen today were the Regiopolis Junior Girls who could be a serious OFSAA Gold Medal Threat, very strong team and TISS Midget Girls also seem like a real OFSAA threat as did the Sydenham Senior Boys with 3 boys not far back of Tristan Woodfine, Sydenham is a stronger team than RS Mclauglin and could shock all and win silver at OFSAA. The TISS team has a shot at the podium as well as other than Massey, there are no senior boys teams that are untouchable by either of these teams.
Junior Boys: Sydenham shows up big again and edges TISS and Renfrew
Midget Boys: TISS dominant going 1-2-7-13
Senior Girls: TISS upsets strong Renfrew team
Numbers way down due to flu, over 22 teams last week in regional comps in some divisions, less than 20% fielded teams this week....incredible numbers!
This was more survival than a race.

Anyone know how short EOSSAA courses are? Heard someone say at the finish line, 6.45 ish I would say that the course was about 6.8km. It may have been 6.45km at the pre-EOSSAA meet, but the extension into the woods made it ~1-min slower. |

Just looking over some results and I was wondering what some other people thought about this. After looking at the YRAA Senior Boys results and comparing to the Ofsaa entries I noticed that 5 teams from the region made ofsaa and the 3rd individual qualifier finished 17th in the meet.
I know they are the host region and get to fill all the empty spots, but I really think that it should go to some more deserving teams than one that scores 133 in a region that isn`t even all that strong. Anyone want to say their side.

How would you determine who is "Most deserving"? Other than the fact that yes there may be faster teams out there it would be an impossible task to pick them, there is no way to compare and there would always be disagreements. But I do think that the with the host region getting double entries it seems a bit of a stretch to also let them have the empty spots as well. I would be more in favour of leaving the empty spots empty as a rule.
