Rachael Nedrow takes Oregon crown; out-of state stackers crowd the top




Overall results at this year's Oregon State Sport Stacking Championships seem to be an echo of last year.

"Speedstackinggirl" Rachael Nedrow took home top Oregon stacker honors at the 2009 Oregon State Sport Stacking Championships held at Village Baptist in Beaverton, OR on Nov. 21, but only placed third for the individual all-around stacker list. California stackers Beau McDowell and Lillian Chin took the top two spots, and Matt Sunga took fourth. Grady Moran from Washington State placed fifth overall. Individual all-around scores are calculated by adding the combined scores from the individual 3-3-3, 3-6-3 and cycle events.

Rachael's was hampered by a less-than-stellar showing in the 3-3-3 event. Her best time in the finals was 3.31 seconds, over a second way off what she could do.

In 2008, Rachael had the best overall score among Oregon stackers, but was outpaced by stackers from Washington and Utah for the individual all-around stacker honors.

Oregon Stacking Championships featured participation by stackers from the West Coast, California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. Kalama Elementary from Washington sent a team of six stackers. Several state records for different age divisions were set for California, Washington, British Columbia, and Oregon.

On the home front, Rock Creek Elementary led by P.E. instructor Lori Meeks made its debut in the 10U Team Division. The fourth grade stackers (Mark Huynh, Marissa Pogolrec, Ben Fung, and James Domico) are newcomers to the sport, having only picked up the sport two months ago.

Speed RACR (Rachael Nedrow, Anne Tan, Charlotte Lindley, and Rachel Mumaw) improved their state team relay record in the Timed 3-6-3 Relay.

More results from the Oregon Tournament will be forthcoming, and all records are unofficial pending verification by WSSA.
