2024 Postal Championship

With the Q4 Postal meet in the books, it is time to crown the Men’s and Women’s postal champions. 17 women and 44 men competed throughout the year. 17 women is the largest women’s field the postal has ever had, beating the previous best of 12 entrants set in 2023. 44 women is the largest men’s field the postal has ever had, again a huge jump over the previous best of 36 entrants set in 2023. 61 entrants represented nearly half of the 2024 USAWA members.

Scoring was done the same way it was done last year with points awarded based on number of entrants. RJ Jackson and Sylvia Stockall tied with 33 points each. I don’t think we have a tiebreaker system yet, but with RJ taking the win in Q2 and Q3, versus Sylvia’s Q1 win, I am proposing RJ is the women’s postal champion. Abe Smith had 99 points, narrowly edging out Barry Bryan with 94 points. Congratulations to RJ and Abe. This is RJ’s 8th title and Abe’s 1st title.

Grand Slam winners include Stacy Todd, Allison Lupo, Janet Thompson, Abe Smith, Barry Bryan, Denny Habecker, Randy Smith, Jeff Wenzel, Travis Luther, Tony Lupo, Spencer Wenzel, Sanjiv Gupta, Eric Todd, Bill Clark
