2012 SCS Nationals

Earlier this month, Team Momentum sent 9 of its top climbers to compete at the SCS Youth National Championships in Atlanta.  The competition took place over a 4 day period, July 5- 9.  Everyone climbed the first two days, one route per day, with the scores of those two days being tallied to determine the top 16 (out of 35- 40 per category).  Those top 16 moved on the to semi-final round (Saturday), which determined the top 10 going on to finals (Sunday).

Momentum had two athletes, Nathaniel Coleman (male B) and Palmer Larson (male A) make the final day, placing 5th and 10th respectively.



Final results for Momentum athletes are as follows:

Madison Roden (female D): 28th
Daniel Reavy (male C): 35th
Ellise Shuman (female C): 15th
Katie Shuman (female B): 14th
Nathaniel Coleman (male B): 5th
Sarah Legg (female A): 12th
Rachel Wedge (female A): 24th
Cole Bradburn (male B): 31st
Palmer Larson (male A): 10th

Congratulations to our national team!  We are proud of the strength, courage and determination they showed all year and at this competition which drew the very best American youth climbers from all corners of the country.
