2013 USIAC Full Results

posted May 21, 2013, 12:31 AM by USCA Webmaster

This year, USIAC was held in Southern Utah by SUU and Cedar City. It was a gorgeous venue with rough winds the first day of shootings, which was gone by the second day of scoring. Thank you to all USCA volunteers who helped make this event a success. We would like to especially thank Dakota Sinclair, Chris Cheng, Gary Holstein, and Roberto Ghizzi for being a tremendous support to both USCA and the tournament. Thank you to SUU and Cedar City for hosting this wonderful event, including Ed and Joan Eliason, Jerry and Eileen Pylypchuk, and Benny Mar for their work organizing the event. USCAA also wishes to recognize and profusely thank the coaches, athletes, and clubs who pitched in when needed and lent their experience and muscle to help the event.  In particular, thank you to Lorinda Cohen, Bill Coady, Frank Thomas, Andy Puckett, Francis Parchaso, Mark Eggers, Kris Strebeck, and Rodney Estrada.  With their assistance over the weekend the tournament remained on track and all events were contested.

With the conclusion of the 2013 USIAC, we conclude this year of shooting.  US College Archery wishes to take a moment to thank the graduating seniors who have supported collegiate archery and participated in events throughout the years.  We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.

Congratulations to all the All-Americans and those who earned the Academic Archery Honors. In order to qualify for All-American, the archer had to have completed Indoor Nationals in February and Outdoor Nationals (USIAC). The sum of the ranking round scores from these two events was used to determine the top ten archers of each division. This year marks the first year that Bowhunter was able to earn these awards.

2013 USIAC Results Day 1

posted May 17, 2013, 8:37 PM by USCA Webmaster   [ updated May 17, 2013, 9:23 PM ]

The results from the first day at USIAC 2013 will be posted here as they become available. Check back for more! 

2013 Coach of the Year, Service Award, and Judge of the Year

posted May 7, 2013, 12:26 PM by USCA Webmaster

Coach of the Year
Every year US Collegiate Archery wishes to recognize coaches, volunteers, and judges who contribute not just to their clubs, but to the country as a whole and actively participate in growing archery. This year USCA, after sending the nominations through committee, is proud to announce Mark Eggers is the 2013 Coach of the Year!

Mark has volunteered his time, money, and energy into growing college archery. Currently coaching two teams, volunteering to help write the 3D USIAC rules, oversee the judging committee, Mark has been an amazing influence in his local community and nationally. 

As a coach, Mark was asked to help his first team and soon found himself with a second, trying to keep pace with them both and ensure everyone got their practice in, bows tuned, everyone packed and ready for the tournament, and doing the things every great coach knows how to do naturally.

Nationally Mark saw a need to help archery and stepped up , calling around and asking if there was anywhere that he could volunteer, anything he could do to help out. At the time USCA was preparing for 3D USIACs and needed someone to help sort through the 3D rules, figure out what applied best to collegiate archery and how to implement it and said, “Yes, if you’d like to volunteer, could you...take this particular project?” Mark knows and understands the 3D world very well and was instrumental in assisting and maintaining 3D archery for USCA.


Service Award
USCA wishes to announce that the two service awards for the year are to be given to Roberto Ghizzi and Mark Eggers. Both gentlemen volunteer their time and energy to college archery and their services. Roberto has become a one man show that can immediately become a director of shooting, the engineer to prepare a field, lining, striping, and setting up targets singlehandedly, and has a massive toolkit at all times in the event of the dreaded equipment failure. We look forward to seeing Roberto in the next year and thank him for his efforts in growing college archery.


Judge of the Year
US Collegiate Archery is happy to recognize Linda Collier as the judge of the year. From Southern California, Linda has worked with several organizations and their tournaments and is an old pro at the judging game. One amazing quality about Linda is the need to beg her to accept her stipends. Linda will often volunteer to judge the tournament or DoS it for free, without any expectations of compensation or recognition. It is constantly an honor and privilidge for her to work with tournaments on behalf of US Collegiate Archery, despite the lengthy debates over how she must please accept the compensation check or at the very least can we buy her dinner? We look forward to seeing her next year at Indoor Nationals in Tulare, Ca.

Media Policy

posted May 6, 2013, 10:15 AM by USCA Webmaster

The USCAA Media Policy and Requirements pertain to all “media.” Media includes any person taking video, and/or photographs, conducting interviews, or writing articles regarding USCAA Championship and Qualifier events. Violations of USCAA media policies, the USCAA Rules and Procedures, or the USCAA Code of Ethics may result in revocation of credentials. 

In order to be come a photographer on the field, please review the policy below.

Due to short notice for USIAC, media passes will be granted on-site by technical delegate Gary Holstein. 

Equipment Grant Changes

posted Apr 3, 2013, 9:56 AM by USCA Webmaster

The equipment grant program is undergoing revision. 

Effective 1 April, the following changes are implemented,
1)Gold Tier grants are discontinued,
2) Clubs must wait at least two years between grant requests. 

Grants are intended to help support the clubs archery programs. Clubs must be active in supporting their own program. Equipment requests are for general club use and are for beginning/intermediate equipment. Requesting specific equipment such as arrows for individual club members is not part of the grant program. Requests for storage, 3D targets, competition expenses, tournament equipment, coach expenses, or youth programs are not part of the grant program. All clubs must have at least one club member certified as a USCAA coach, have secure storage, and an inventory system in place. Application of equipment does not guarantee approval. 

Management of USCAA Qualifiers and Championship Events

posted Mar 27, 2013, 9:35 PM by USCA Webmaster

To assist members in knowing and understanding the responsibilities of event Judges, USCAA Technical Delegates, Host Clubs/Organizations as well as rules regarding field of play, USCAA has adapted World Archery rules as provided in this document. Questions can be sent to USCAA Events Coordinator, Kacey, at kacey@uscollegiatearchery.org

Rules Corrections/Clarifications March 2013

posted Mar 27, 2013, 9:07 PM by USCA Webmaster

USCAA appreciates receiving questions regarding the need to clarify or make corrections to the 2012-13 Rules and Procedures. 

The following clarifications/corrections were made to the 2012-13 Rules and Procedures:

page 19 - added: Any archer moving a fixed pin sight, increasing bow weight beyond the permitted weights, using equipment that does not conform to the rules and regulations or any other changes that are not permitted under tournament rules is cheating and will be disqualified from an event and may lose all honors and awards earned.

page 29 - Team Round for basic bow is conducted at 50m.

page 30  - changed '6-ring' to '5-ring' - the target face has scoring rings 10, 9, 8, 7, 6

page 33 - 900 round.  The correct distances for a 900 round are 60-50-40 meters.  Team round is shot at 70m recurve and 50m compound.

page 45 - All-Region awards.  The formula for the number of All-Region awards in each category are determined using the same formula used for All-American awards.  Specifically, there is a maximum of 5 All-Region awards.  The number of awards is based on participation from the regional indoor event.  Since there are two sites in the regional tournament, in 2012-13 the number is based on both sites combined.  The All-region award is not  an All-American award or honor. 

page 57-  Definition of 'fixed pin sight' - A 'fixed pin' sight is a sight that may not be moved during the competition.  The pin may be a slider/micro-adjustable sight.  (Note:  This rule will be reviewed for the 2013-14 academic year). 

page 48 - Coach of year.  Clubs submit nominations for coach of the year to USCAA as outlined in the announcement on the website.  The nominating committee is established by USCAA with applicants applying to serve on the committee.  The nominating committee selects the coach of the year in accordance with the criteria.

 

Please address questions regarding rules and clarifications for

- tournaments/events  to Kacey at kacey@uscollegiatearchery.org

-membership, eligibility, grants, athlete training to the Membership Team at membership@uscollegiatearchery.org

-Coach certification to Ed Eliason at coaching@uscollegiatearchery.org

- Judge or Coach Course registration to Joan at CRTAdmin@uscollegiatearchery.org

On February 15th and 16th, the Prince William Sound Community College Archery Club, in Valdez, Alaska, hosted its 3rd Annual Vegas in Valdez Archery Tournament. This event, inspired by the famous Las Vegas, Nevada World Archery Festival, is the perfect opportunity for Alaskan archers to experience the traditional 3-spot, 20-yard “Vegas Round.” The tournament, held in the Valdez Civic Center ballrooms on carpet, has become a welcome social event for the Alaska archery community and is a fun competition, drawing archers from the Anchorage, Mat-Su Valley, and Fairbanks areas, as well as Valdez and the Copper Basin.

This is the first year that the event was shot in ballrooms on carpet, which helped add realism to the Valdez venue. Thanks to the support from the Civic Center Director, Pam Lunt, and her staff, the “ballroom flare” took it over the top for a record attendance. The PWSCC Archery Club hosted 60 archers this year; almost double the numbers from the past two years, and the response to the location from visiting archers was overwhelming. Shooters of all ages, equipment disciplines, levels of ability, and experience participated, which Event Coordinator and PWSCC Archery Club Advisor, Steve Shiell says is “ideal.”

“Archery is a discipline that anyone, with any level of physical ability can participate in, find success and have a good time,” Shiell states.



In addition to the Vegas Round, the Vegas in Valdez Tournament included for the first time a Pro-Am Shoot, where Pro class shooters teamed up with amateur archers, their combined scores going up against other pro-am teams. This event was one of the highlights of the event and included a total of 16 teams.

Prince William Sound Community College, an independently accredited college, yet part of the University of Alaska system, has the only collegiate archery club in Alaska. The PWSCC Archery Club is open to the public and welcomes memberships from the community. The club hosts three Kids’ Archery Camps per year, passing down the knowledge and excitement to new archers, with an emphasis on family participation. Every November the club hosts a Turkey Shoot where the winners receive frozen turkeys and the losers get cans of Spam. April brings a seasonal outdoor archery event, the Spring Fling and BBQ, held on the college campus, and during the summer break there’s a two- day 3-D event held on Thompson Pass at the Blueberry Lake Campground.

Shiell says the PWSCC Archery Club is looking forward to an even bigger Vegas in Valdez event in 2014.
