Our First Report From St. Louis!
Giorgia, John, and Christopher are all busy at the Nationals in St. Louis, but they wanted to take the time to give you a quick update! Christopher has just taken on a National Director position, so he’s working away enforcing the rules and keeping the peace in some of the biggest National events!
Meanwhile, Giorgia and John entered the most difficult pairs event on the NABC schedule — the Platinum Pairs, for which you have to have won a certain number of Platinum Points — only available for coming in in the overalls in National events — even to be eligible. 114 pairs entered on the first day, and when they cut this number to 52 for the second day, John, playing with his regular partner Mitch Towner, and Giorgia, playing with Argentinian superstar Agustin Madala, were neck and neck! Unfortunately John ran into some tough opponents on Day 2 and didn’t make the final day, but Giorgia qualified for the last day in 8th place, so let’s all root for her to bring home another title!
