I have been working on a method to post near real-time results to this web page from the meet site. Simple technology: web form on my cell phone, enter a finisher's bib number and their elapsed time (which I ask them for), upload this to web site. Clever script updates individual and team standings, another web page presents these to web visitors.
However, I did not get a copy of the necessary data file (bib numbers, names, team/school affiliations) so I am unable to provide this service this weekend. It would have been really cool, and I offer my apologies to those distant fans who had hoped to follow the action. Perhaps next time.
