Hello,
It's already two weeks of Olympic competitions. Few more days and the games will be over.
Volleyball
Semifinals were held yesterday. @merthin (POL) followed Poland's national volleyball team (won 3:2 against the USA) and bested @danmaruschak (USA) in the semifinal 39:32. I think we know the second finalist, but let's wait for @manuvert's score.
The Final will be played over Friday and Saturday (Singles) and Sunday (Doubles, if needed).
Captains (@bucipuci and @merthin) again have the right to select the order of play.
I think I know their decisions (pretty obvious), but formally they need to comment this post.
On August 6 the player with the lowest score was @@@benbow2017. Who's going to be the last eliminated before the medalists are known? Knowing the result of @bucipuci from August 7, I can say that Europe will have a place on the podium!
I think I can declare Team Orange the winners. They are just one day short of reaching the finish line. @fredkese needed just 12 on August 7 to cross the line (his score is not available as of writing).
With the other teams, Things got interesting.
@davidthompson57 is the last runner of Team Blue. I thought he would be chasing @fredkese, but instead he has been almost caught up by Teams Red and Green and now needs to run fast to secure the silver medal.
@krakonos, running for Team Green, has ended his lap yesterday (Wednesday). So did @racibo for Team Red. Both teams count now on their last runners - @cezary-io and @homesteadlt respectively - to run for a medal, silver or bronze.
