Resultados de MidPac (and more...)

Nothing official yet has reached your humble narrator, however, it was pretty evident that Cal killed it.  UC Davis looked strong as well...SJSU had a dynamite construction run and the rest of the competitors represented their Universities with class and dignity.  Cal and Davis both passed lateral...There was word from the Twin Cities that NDSU did not pass lateral.  Other schools on the top end were Iowa State, Minnesota and Lakehead...no word on official finishings yet.

MidPac 2012 Steel Bridge Overall:

1st Cal
2nd UC Davis
3rd Tongji

F.Y.I. MidPac

The Saturday Night Party is at the Aggies' room...(loaded...)

MidPac Word...

...Expecting rain in Berkeley this Saturday.  The Captains' meeting has yielded the positions and with a record 11 Bridges competing at MidPac, yes, 11, UC Davis will go 10th and Cal will go last for good measure.  Let the tension buildup begin!!!  Not sure what the order is for the rest of the MidPac Bridges: SJSU, Chico, Big Sac, Fresno, RenoSFSU, Pacific(?), The Furd(?), Santa Clara, Some team from Japan or was it China?
