Geocache Description:

The La Quinta leg of the East and West Gauntlet multi-caches

This cache is part of both the "East Gauntlet" (GCMYN) and the "West Gauntlet" (GCMYM) multi-caches. Under the lid of the cache, you will find a single number. Make note of it- You will need this information to complete either of the Gauntlets.
This Cache is NOT at the above posted coordinates!
Solve the following puzzle to find the actual coordinates:

5 knights from Knight Arthur's court were sent to complete in a 5 round jousting tournament. Each Knight competed only once, and none of them completed in the same round or against each other.

Sagramore, who was originally favored to win, was not the knight that scored 9 points

Gawaine, who had already completed his joust, (as well as a few flagons of ale) cheered loudly for the knight that recieved a score of 7

Garet scored a single point lower then Amant

Sagramore, who had competed in an earlier round, stayed and watched Garet's round, and then they later both watched Carados achieve 8 pts in his joust.

Even with the knight in the 3rd round getting dismounted early and scoring no points, Arthur's Knights managed a combined score of 30 during the tournament, enough to take the title of champions for their realm.

Cache is located at:
N 33˚ 42.ABC
W 116˚ 17.DEF

When:
A= Amants pts
B= Carados' round
C= Garet's round + Gawaine's round
D= Garets pts
E= Sagramore's round + Amants round
F= Carados' pts

Verify your solution
with the proper solution, the totals of all 15 digits of the coords will = 64
