New Ranking System to be Discussed
\r\n \r\n \r\nAt the upcoming USSA Cross-country Committee Meetings this weekend, members of the committee will be discussing a proposal to change the National Ranking List from overall, classic and \r\nfreestyle lists, to overall, distance and sprint. Such a system would be similar to the method used by the FIS for the past several years. Those close to USSA who are proposing the new format have developed a "test" list generated using their new points systems. \r\n \r\nHere are the top-20 ranked athletes on the distance and sprint test \r\nlists: \r\n \r\nMen's Distance \r\n \r\n1. Kris Freeman 8.32 \r\n2. Carl Swenson 16.10 \r\n3. Andrew Johnson 33.13 \r\n4. David Chamberlain 37.55 \r\n5. Chris Cook 43.46 \r\n6. Justin Freeman 43.60 \r\n7. Leif Zimmerman 44.00 \r\n8.
