NorCal Championships qualifications:
One of the unique things about high school cycling in the NorCal League is that we combine cumulative points over the season, so that after the semi-finals we can award race season “overall” awards to the top 5 athletes in each category. From the NICA/NorCal rulebook: “Overall Series scoring for individuals is based on the best 4 of 5 in a five-race series or the best 3 of 4 in a four-race series. In other words, the lowest score is dropped. If there are fewer than four races in the series, no score will be dropped.” Athletes who came close to qualifying may petition to compete at the NorCal Championship, space in their category permitting.
