The week 5 results are posted to the Tigres website – Thank you to all the Tigres athletes, volunteers, coaches, and board members for helping to make our last home meet of the year our smoothest one yet. We truly appreciate your patience this season while we adjusted going to an all Fully Automatic Timing (FAT) system, worked out pre-seeding in staging, and re-assigned some of the volunteers – moving some from areas that many of you were already used to. Thanks to Michael and Heather Godfrey for working the logistics out and spending a lot of time at each meet to ensure a smooth flow during this time as well.
Regarding the ribbons that were handed out for Week 4 vs. Oxnard – we goofed. Actually, I goofed. I printed the award labels through “Team Manager” (which manages our team roster and holds all the results for each athlete), rather than “Meet Manager” (which is the software we run at the meets) – which resulted in overall place labels instead of places by heat.
I apologize to all the Tigres athletes for this error – we know how much the ribbons mean to you. I also apologize to our ribbon volunteers Laurie and Monica for having to hear the complaints for my error. We are finding the best way to correct this error.
We will have Week 5 ribbons to you soon, and hopefully correct week 4 ribbons to you soon!
