5b5f991149c93_GroupStage.png.4222cf5d8b3ad2ca154d69df8f400390.png

The 2018 Women's Field Hockey World Cup continued last week with 2 more games. As we were down 0-1 we needed wins to let us not be eliminated. Our next game was against England where we tied them with a score of 1-1, giving us one point. The last match was against India and we also tied with them with a score of 1-1, again giving us one point. Sadly even though we tied for points with India the next classification was for goal difference which we had -2 meanwhile India had -1. This was our worse finish in a Women's Field Hockey World Cup, so thankfully this doesn't affect Tokyo.

2018 Women's Softball World Championship

:USA USA 5 - 2 Mexico :MEX

In the World Championship opener, we defeated Mexico, 5-2. Head Coach Ken Eriksen said "I thought we played well for Game 1 of the tournament. Anytime that you come out for the first game, there's always going to be butterflies and nervousness. We have one of the youngest teams in the tournament, from player 1-17. Team USA is still developing and working towards not only this week but the future." In the fourth inning we were ahead 2-0 which was a good start!

2018 Women's Softball World Championship

:USA USA 11 - 0 Netherlands :NED

First game of the day was against The Netherlands who previously had a score of 1-2. Going into this match we were feeling confident after a great day yesterday beating Chinese Taipei. This game started slowly but in the third resulting in an 11-0 win. The Netherlands is currently ranked No. 8 in the world and surprisingly we beat them pretty dominantly. The first two innings were scoreless but a three-strikeout in the bottom half of the third put us back out on the plate.  

 

:USA USA 7 - 0 New Zealand :NZL

After the 11-0 win earlier in the day against Netherlands our spirits were high and continued to be high throughout the game. In the first inning we had a two-run thanks to Arioto and Moultrie. New Zealand is currently ranked No. 11 in the world and has not had the best few games coming into this match with a 0-2 W-L. 

 


Group Results:

Finally tied for 1st place in the group along with Puerto Rico. I believe with one more win we will lock ourselves into playoffs.

TOTAL BWF World Championships 2018

China | July 30th - August 5th

 

Women's Singles

5b678edcdaf24_WomensSingles.png.6553827ce13c922c45c6c4715ab94259.png 

By far our best competitor at the World Championships was Beiwen Zhang. Coming into the tournament she was ranked 12th so Beiwen was able to get a first round bye. In Round 2 Beiwen got matched against Chloe Birch a very good player from England who put up quite a match against Beiwen. In the end Beiwen ended up winning 13-21,21-18,21-15. In Round 3/Round of 16 Beiwen had to go against Tai Tzu Ying the #1 player in the world. Beiwen had a close first match against her loosing 19-21 and in the 2nd match she just couldn't hold on and lost 14-21, thus ending Beiwen tournament at the World Championships. Beiwen is currently ranked 13th in the world now and hopes to bring back up her ranking in the coming months of competition. 

 

Women's Doubles

5b6790639ff90_WomensDoubles.png.c1c95e1d414ce4173bd3bedf6e2ca552.png

Ariel and Sydney Lee came into this tournament ranked 47th in the world so they were matched up against a pretty good duo of Ekaterina Bolotova and Alina Davletova. The match didn't go to well for the sisters who lost 7-21,9-21. Thankfully their ranking didn't go down after this loss but I'm hoping they will continue to improve for the Qualification Season!

 

Men's Doubles

5b6791104f423_MensDoubles.png.cd782503f8205234e5c19b15fced1d9a.png

Long time no see Phillip and Ryan Chew! Coming into the tournament ranked 50 I was not expecting them to win any games or maybe even not win any matches. But they ended up winning the first match 21-13 but lost the next two 19-21,15-21! Their first match was very good against Jelle Maas and Robin Tabeling but they couldn't continue the groove into the next two. 

 

Mixed Doubles

5b6791d030a40_MixedDoubles.png.ae2e407b70b2ba700f3f4410adbbfbe4.png

Ouch this result hurts... Props to Mathew for competing at 61 years old and still being the best Mixed Doubles team alongside Isabel Zhong but they lost 6-21,4-21 which is not a close match by any means.

With our last game of this tournament against Brazil we needed a big win to win the tournament and thats what we got! A 4-1 win against Brazil allowed us to win the 2018 Tournament of Nations and take away the defending champions trophy from Australia!

Charlie Buckingham competed at Rio placing 11th and almost qualifying for the Medal Final. Charlie is hoping for a good performance. In 2014 he was able to get 7th place but at this World Championship he has not had the best of starts already at 57 Points. Christopher Barnard does have a chance of being able to get in the top 14 if he is able to do good in the upcoming races.

22: Luke Muller | 52 Points

27: Caleb Paine | 57 Points

 

5b67bed322db6_FinnMen.thumb.jpg.62e60fa1b57a06b8474b3b10938b4ac2.jpg

Stuart and David are very close to the top 8 with wins in Race 2 and 4. Hopefully they will be able to win a few more races so they can get themselves into the top 8.

5b67bff780655_49erMen.thumb.jpg.9a6751eb864819d4ebd7021af93ac17a.jpg

Cristopher and Trevor will have to step it up if they are going to want to get within the top 8. We don't really have many amazing teams in the 49er class but hopefully they can show themselves and get some better scores!

 

RS:X (Women)

51: Farrah Hall | 50 Points

 

5b67c075426b7_RSXWomen.thumb.jpg.5ba534bf943491273e893b6b038973e2.jpg

Farrah having finished 2 races so far sits in 51st place. She needs some very good finishing to be able to push her up into the top 10.

15: Erika Reineke | 48 Points

20: Haddon Hughes | 63 Points

5b67c0f5c2663_LaserRadical.thumb.jpg.6178160b35a535d6fc013846386760d0.jpg

Woohoo! Paige Railey is doing amazing winning in Race 2 and coming in the top 10 in all 6 races so far! She should and Erika should be able to place into the top 18 and secure quota places for the USA!

 

470 Class (Women)

36: Nikole Barnes & Lara Dallman-Weiss | 154 Points

38: Atlantic Brugman & Nora Brugman | 161 Points

 

5b67c18834727_470Women.thumb.jpg.554fa522714b7c4e79cca178aca02f23.jpg

Nikole and Lara have been doing alright, finishing around the 29th place average. With only 4 races left I'm not sure how much they will be able to do. 

 

49erFX Class (Women)

21: Stephanie Roble & Margaret Shea | 40 Points

47: Kate Shaner & Charlotte Mack | 76 Points

 

49erFX.thumb.jpg.4767b6da5263f2c611e9aa87134d7b2a.jpg

Stephanie and Margaret still have a chance to possibly secure us quota places but it will be hard and they will have to show themselves in the upcoming races!

 

Nacra 17 Class (Mixed)

35: Bora Gulari & Helena Scutt | 31 Points

Narca.thumb.jpg.e05425a90f646e95949f96085fb4d1b4.jpg

Sarah and David are very close in securing us a quota if they can just do a tad bit better than they have been doing. They had a rough day on Race 3 where they finished 8 but if they can start getting in 5th they should be able to get us a quota!

There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month.
