Dan, Thank you for your continuous work on this, a difficult task. Also, thank you for keeping the perspective for all of MAISA. Speaking for Navy we could not do any Team Racing after week 13 because of exams. Team Racing as we all know takes the most players of any racing we do and that would mean getting many people out of exams and other requirements here at the academy. Again, I am only speaking for navy, not the rest of MAISA. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2007 9:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MAISA] Scheduling for 2008 ############################################################################ College Sailing Mail is proudly supported by VERSUS, the Official Broadcaster of the 32nd America's Cup. To learn where to watch the Cup, visit: http://www.versus.com/americascup ############################################################################ All, First of all, many thanks to those involved individuals who have already responded to my request for Exam and Graduation Schedules. I was truly amazed at how many people responded so quickly. Come on the rest of you! Second, as you should know by now, the ICSA has mandated Semis for the Coeds and they will be held on Week #13 which means we have to move the War to Week#11 to keep Week# 12 for a make up. This means we are losing some weekends in the spring which will call for major changes and some difficulty in getting the team races the Super Powers want while still keeping our six qualifiers on the best possible weekends with concerns for the weather. I have two questions to which I would like your responses. Ann has suggested the possibility that the Prosser could be held on Week#14, after the ICSA Semis. This would free up the schedule to keep the Central and North #1 Qualifiers late in the season. I want to keep those two qualifiers on Week #9 if at all possible. However, we cannot have both the #1 and #2 qualifiers both up against major events. If the Trux moves to Week #10 and the Prosser is on Week #9, that just won't do. If the Prosser can be run later, this would solve that problem. The second question is for all teams. How many teams can and will schedule events on Week #13, Week#14 and Week #15. The Engineers Cup and the Drexel Open are now on Weeks #15 and #14 respectively. We at CNU had never done these, but we had determined that we could this year, but no opening appeared in time. If we can move some other lower level events to those weekends, we can ease the bind. The Delaware Spring, the Greater NY Invite, the William & Mary Colony Cup, and even the Grant Regatta might be candidates for such a move. May I hear from you with your thoughts on the advisability of these suggestions. Again, my thanks to all of you who are staying on top of things during the summer - and have a good one.
