I’d like to share the results with you from our competition in Murrieta California on February 7, 2015. I’m really tickled that these are the same courses we ran at Queen City (Cincinnati,OH) back in August of last year. So in every real sense, this is a single competition that is undertaken by players in different geographically areas.
That being said, I’m going to summarize only the results by players in California. As soon as I’m up to the task, I’ll combine results from the two different venues.

Team Results
The team results were based on accumulated Lifetime Performance Points (LPP) scored by dogs over the three rounds. These were the final results:
209 Team B ~ Pie; Rampage; Brew
175 Team E ~ Bing; Jagger; Viper
164 Team F ~ Phineas; Flo; Jagger
154 Team A ~ Happy Mac; Chloe; Buttter-Fly
128 Team “Gotcha” ~ Icon; Breeze; Tyme
117 Team D ~ Chaos; Meg; Scarlett
Our team “F”, by the way, followed what we called the “Queen City” formula. The scores of every dog who was not on a team were aggregated into a single team based on the highest scores in the first two rounds. In the Murrieta California competition, they were the third place team.
