    This mountain bike course feels very South American with its mix of wooden/concrete features and punchy single track. I like it

    Last weekend, both the Men's and Women's FIBA 3x3 basketball teams finished within the top three of the FIBA 3x3 World Cup with the men finishing second and the women winning the world title despite losing a match in group play. Both teams have at least guaranteed a place in next year's world olympic qualification tournament. However, both the men and women have a good chance in qualifying to Paris directly via being the top 3 of the FIBA 3x3 world rankings in November.

    The US Women's Rugby Sevens team have qualified to Paris after finishing in 3rd place in the 2022-23 World Rugby Women's Seven series:

    The men's sevens team, which failed to qualified through the world sevens series after finishing 10th, will have a chance to qualify at the North & Central Americas/Caribbean qualifying tournament in August at Langford, Canada.

    That's a fair point. I think it's something I would love to do once or twice, but after that, I'll sit on the couch for 16 straight days and watch all the events, so I don't miss anything.

    Started work back on my Team USA Spreadsheet again, therefore starting with Archery. Thought I'd make a thread since there currently is the 2023 World Archery Championships and Pan American Games Team Trials going on today and tomorrow.
     
    Top 4 Recurve Men & Women will go to the Pan American Games, so far the top four after the 1st day of competitions in Round 3 are
     
    Brady Ellison, Jack Williams, Matthew Nofel, Matthew Requa. No surprise here as they have all represented Team USA before and are the current four highest ranked Americans. 
     
    Casey Kaufhold, Catalina Gnoriega, Jennifer Mucino-Fernandez, Jordan Marie Meiners. This team is pretty different considering Mackenzie Brown has retired from recurve archery. 
     
    I'm interested to see how the competition finishes tomorrow. Here's to hoping in a year we can win a medal again in Archery.
     
    p.s. not sure how we want to organize threads on this club considering this is technically USA Team Trials for an olympic qualifying event.

    USA Olympics Recap Day 1
     
    Archery:
    I was thinking our Mixed Team would win against Indonesia   and get a possible medal but alas we lost in the first round with an 18-20 shootout score after a underwhelming 8 point arrow from Ellison. Here's to hoping the rest of our Archery competitions goes well for us. 
     
     
    Basketball 3x3:
    Women's
    We win our first two matches. 17-10 vs France  and 21-9 vs Mongolia 
     
    Badminton:
    Men's  Doubles
    In the first day of Group Stages Phillip and Ryan Chew lost 0-2 to Jun Hui Li and Yu Chen Lio of China  who were seeded 3rd. I'm not expecting Phillip and Ryan Chew to win a match in their group but should still be interesting and hopefully close matches on July 26th and 27th. 
     
    Boxing:
    Men's  Featherweight
    Our featherweight boxer Duke Ragan beat Samuel Kistohurry of France  3-2, which advances him to the Round of 16 where he will face Serik Temirzhanov of Kazakhstan 
     
    Men's Welterweight
    Delante Johnson won his match 3-2 against Brian Arregui of Argentina 
     
    Women's Featherweight
    Yarisel Ramierez lost her opening round match 0-5 against Nikolina Cacic of Croatia 
     
     
    Fencing:
    Women's Individual Epee 
    Kelley Hurley started in the RO32 against Erika Kirpu of Estonia  where she narrowly won 15-14. She then went onto the RO16 and narrowly lost 11-12 to Murtazaeva of ROC . Else where in the RO32 Kathrine Holmes lost 12-15 to Song Se-ra of Korea . Kathrine's sister Courtney Hurley lost 8-15 in the RO32 match against Zhu Mingye of China 
     
    Men's Individual Sabre
    On the Men's side in Sabre, Andrew Mackiewicz won in the RO64 15-13 against Shimaura of Japan . Later in the RO32 he lost 7-15 to Sang-uk from South Korea . Daryl Homer lost his initial match 11-15  in the RO32 against Amer of Egypt . Our hopeful medalist Eli Derschwitz who is seeded 2nd won his initial RO32 match 15-9 against Streets of Japan . He then got upset 9-15 by 15th seed Jung-hwan of South Korea. 
    Football:
    Women's 
    We got back to our winning ways against New Zealand  where we won with a score of 6-1.
     
    Shooting:
    10m Air Rifle Women's 
    We had two competitors in the Qualification round for this event. Mary Carolynn Tucker and Alison Marie Weisz. Weisz finished 14th with a score of 626.9 meanwhile, Tucker finished 3rd with a score of 631.4 which has now qualified her to the finals where hopefully she can score our first medal of Tokyo! 
     
    In the final Mary Tucker unfortunately went out of the competition in 6th place. She will be back in action on July 31st in the 50m Rifle 3 Positions.
     
    10m Air Pistol Men's
    In the qualification round both our competitors failed to make it into the top 8 to reach the finals. James Hall placed 10th with a score of 577 meanwhile Nick Mowrer placed 13 with a score of 576. 
     
     
    Softball:
    We continue our winning streak with a 2-0 win over  setting us up well in the top four. 
     
     
    Table Tennis:
    Women's  Singles
    In the preliminary rounds Ju Liu (68) upset Oshonaike (53) of Nigeria  4-1 allowing her to advance to the first round where she will play Dvorak (43) of Spain .
     
    Men's  Singles
    In the preliminary round Kumar (55) won his match 4-1 against Enkhbat (65) of Mongolia.  Kumar will now play against Mino (46) of Ecuador . 
     
     
    Volleyball:
    Men's
    We win our opening match 3-0 against France 
     
    Water Polo:
    Women's
    Our Women's team wins their first 25-4 match in the group stage against Japan . Great start for the team as we should at least get top 3 in our group. 
     
     
    Weightlifting:
    Women's 49kg
    Our medalist hopeful Jourdan Delacruz was unable to get a successful Clean & Jerk after scoring a 86kg Snatch round. 
     
     
     
    Personal Thoughts: Disappointing day for many of our athletes today. I was hoping for Medals in Mixed Archery, Men's Individual Sabre, Women's 49kg Weightlifting, or Women's 10m Air Rifle. 
     
    Update: Not sure when I'll sleep but feel free to update the event's that I missed/haven't gotten to yet/slept through. If not I will go back in the morning and update everything!

    Archery
    Women's
    In Archery the ranking rounds took place. Mackenzie Brown got a 5th seed and PB with a score of 668. Casey Kaufhold placed 17th with a score of 653 meanwhile Jennifer Mucino-Fernandez placed 24th with a PB score of 649. These great scores from the team allowed the Women's Team to seed 3 and get a bye in the first round. 
     
    The next individual matches for these women will be 
     
    Brown (5th)  vs Schwartz (60th) 
    Casey Kaufhold (17th) vs de Velasco (48th) 
    Jennifer Mucino-Fernandez (24th) vs Pavlova (41st) 
     
    The next team match will be versus the winner of ROC  (6th)  vs Ukraine  (11th) 
     
    Men's
    Having having a rough start Brady Ellison came back to finish 2nd place with a score of 682. Jack Williams placed 29th with a score of 656, while Jacob Wukie with a score of 649 placed 47th. This allowed the Men's team to place 5th which is a bit lower than expected but I believe they can work their way through the bracket. 
     
    The next individual matches for the men will be
     
    Ellison (2nd) vs Vaziri Teymoorlooei (63rd) 
    Williams (29th) vs Plihon (36th) 
    Wukie (47th) vs Aguilar (18th) 
     
    The next team match will be versus France  (12th) 
     
     
    Mixed
    Our mixed team placed 2nd with an overall score of 1350 which means we will play Indonesia (15th)
