1996 NE Regional & National Collegiate Championships

Here are the results from the 1996 NE Regional & National Collegiate Championships, held in Swarthmore on Sunday Febuary 18, 1996.

Individual

Team

Team points were awarded for each win. 3 points for a win in the finals, semi-finals or quarter finals in the main draw (1 point in the consolation) and 2 points below (1/2 point in the consolation). For doubles teams with partners from different schools the points were split.

84 players participated spread in 14 teams, ranked according to the (admittedly) biased total number of points we produced the following:

Note: As you may have noticed, this method of adding all point produces a biased list which favors large teams. If you are interested in following/participating a discussion on possible improvements (one simple version is to use the average points per player in the next column), contact us.

Draws

Adrian Smith was successfully debuting his ( newly developed tournament program (doesn't have a name I believe, but it runs under Micro$oft Excel 5), and all teams could leave the tournament with completed drawsheets of all 10 events! Unfortunately I only have the binary (excel5.0) files, which my excel4.0 cannot read. Until I find time/machine/energy to convert, you will have wait and see these results online (thanks Micro$loth)
