Will the cross country pages be getting a facelift like the track pages did last spring?

Thank you!

It looks great!  How far off is the new XC Uploader?

Addison, good to hear that you like the new look for XC!

You can access the XC Uploader by clicking on the meet name in your calendar.  One of the options provided will say 'Upload this Meet'.  Click on that to go to the XC Uploader.

Here is the link for the XC Upload page for the Musselman Invitational: http://athletic.net/Edit/CrossCountry/Results/Upload.aspx?Meet=18641

Once the new XC meet page is finished, the link will also be in the top, right corner (just like Track).

Clicking on the 'Help' tab will let you know the formats that are supported so far.  

Provide feedback on it, if you wish, as some features are different than track.

 

Note to All Coaches:  We have one coach who has already used the XC Uploader to post meet results for 325+ Collegiate meets (meets previous to 2009).  So it definitely can be a great tool for expanding the coverage in your area!

And I thought I had a sickness ...

I just use the default format and it works very well.  Eventually it will be slick if you can just read hytek and sydex, but for now, I do fine with:

Place[tab]LastName[tab]FirstName[tab]Grade[tab]School[tab]Time[tab]DivID

or whatever it is.  I can easily make any race result into that format with a simple regular expression engine.  I'd be happy to convert anyone elses electronic results for a small fee if they don't want to do it.

I do hope that a score calculator is on the short horizon as seeing scores would be nice.  I sometimes post them in the comments section, but not all the time as it's a bit of work to copy and paste them.
