New Scoring Program
by Al Myers
Rocky Morrison at the USAWA National Championships in Boston.
Developing a new scoring program has been a project I have wanted to get completed for a long time. And BIG THANKS to Rocky Morrison it has been accomplished! Rocky is a new lifter in Frank Ciavattone’s Club who has become really involved in the USAWA this past year. I met Rocky at the USAWA National Championships this past summer and we immediately hit it off. Even though Rocky is new to the all round lifts he lifts like a seasoned veteran. His technique is fantastic, and he puts up some big weights! He’s super friendly and likes to really help out. This was obvious to me as he really gave Frank alot of assistance at Nationals.
On top of all this – he’s also a software specialist. As I explained what I was hoping to develop he immediately agreed to do it! Rocky’s new scoring program is much expanded on our previous scoring program. It is very user friendly and gives compiled listings of best lifters, placings, and lifter certificates. This Excel spreadsheet is compatible with the most recent Excel program. I will keep the old program on the website for a while yet for those that have old versions of Excel and don’t plan to upgrade. I do recommend you download and save the old scoring program if you want to keep it as I will eventually remove it as we transition to Rocky’s scoring program only.
The USAWA Scoring Program can be found on the website under “Scoring Information”.
