Welcome to the official Roots Intramural Open Week 2 Score Report, where we bring you all of the highlights from the week and announce the current leader. First, we wanted to correct a miscalculation in last week’s scoring. Jess’ stellar performance in 22.1 wasn’t added to Team Green’s score, which should have been 1246. Therefore, VirtuJOSHity took home the win for Week 1. We apologize for the confusion. Okay, on to Week 2! The classes continue to fill up fast during the week as athletes fight for their attendance points (when the Open is done, let’s keep this up!). Along with the recurring points — attendance, Top 5, team average, doing the workout in class on Fridays, and wearing your team color — teams had the opportunity to earn an extra 200 points for their team through a one-pot cook-off. The afternoon classes on Monday had a lunch-time treat, when...Read more

Welcome to the official Roots Intramural Open Week 1 Score Report, where we bring you all of the highlights from the week and announce the current leader. Sorry, we don’t have a white leader jersey for the leading team, but the bragging rights are impeccable. This week, teams could earn points in several categories. Recurring points include: attendance points, wearing team colors (all three teams made kick-ass shirts within just two-weeks time … can we take a minute to appreciate how cool that is?), Top 5 Rx and Scaled scores, and an average of all Open scores. This week included a pre-Open challenge of most Judges Certificates AND the Week 1 challenge: Cornhole (sorry, Connor Warman, this may be a touchy topic). Ok, ok, we’ll cut to the chase. Who is leading the 2022 Roots Intramural Open in Week 1?! Team “WE BLUE IT”   It was a close race...Read more
