USPSA Area 6 Day 1 Results (Ladies)

The results are in from the first day of competition at the USPSA Area 6 Regional Handgun Championship. Here’s how the ladies stand after Day 1:

LIMITED – Ladies
06) Randi Rogers    (U)  797.2709  (78.36%)

Gail A McLean  (B)
Gabriela Franco  (D)
Maribel Mier  (B)
Tori Nonaka  (U)
Lisa Munson  (M)
Tiffany Chapin  (D)
Elizabeth Brackmann-Kibert  (D)
Suann Henriques  (C)
Barbara Wolter  (D)

Glock’s Randi Rogers is the only woman in the Limitexd division to shoot the match Friday and is currently in 6th place. Randi won the Production title last year and has opted to run in Limited this year where she’ll be facing Glock teammate Tori Nonaka and the defending Area 6 champ Lisa Munson, shooting for Cameron’s Custom Guns. It’s hard to say how this will end up. Rogers is, in any division in any shooting sport, formidable so to overtake her means shooting fast and clean. Both Nonaka and certainly Munson have the skill to challenge Rogers. Nonoka’s age – she’s just 16 – put her at a slight experience disadvantage when compared to Rogers and Munson who have won countless titles. Regardless, look for both to be in the top five for sure and we’ll all have to wait to see if either can bump Rogers to second place.

OPEN – Ladies
Cathy Whidden  (B)
Eva Micklethwaite  (A)
Kay Miculek  (M)
Sue VanBlaricum  (B)
Tammie Bordwell  (B)
Kaci Cochran   (A)
Jessie Abbate   (A)
Athena Lee  (M)
Megan Francisco  (M)

This is the powerhouse match for the women at Area 6. Kay Miculek of Team S&W, Athena Lee and Megan Francisco (both Team Limcat) are all previous Open division National Champions. Team Leaupold’s Jessie Abbate has won the national title (repeatedly) in Limited and Production and has won in Limited-10 as well. She’s also the Area 6 defending champ. Add to that mix Team Limcat’s Kaci Cochran who won at the Florida Open this year and you got yourself a serious race. The remaining women in the match, Cathy Whidden, Eva Micklethwaite of Cameron’s Custom Guns, Sue VanBlaricum and Tammie Bordwell have all posted strong finishes in 2010 and could easily work their way into the top five. That’s not to say that outgunning Miculek, Lee, Francisco, Abbate or Cochran is ever what you’d call ‘easy’.

PRODUCTION – Ladies
08) Nancy Huspek    (B)  744.2113  (75.19%)
24) Amber Ohlson    (U)  362.5153  (36.63%)

Angela M Cortes  (C)
Karyn Byerly  (C)
Elena Bykova  (U)
Yolanda Castillo  (U)

REVOLVER

Luke Fay  (B)
Cheryl Fordyce  (C)
Lena Miculek  (U)

The Revolver division thisyear only has four shooters so we’ve listed the two men as well. Cheryl Fordyce and Lena Miculek have yet to shoot the match so we’ll haev to wait for today’s or Sunday’s scores to see where they’ll finish.
