By my count it is 16 or 15 rows. It is hard to count because the benches are still missing from many of them (top left corner seems to be the only complete spot).
If that is the case, it is about the same number of rows as
Chesapeake Regional and it seems to be maybe 10-20% longer (I am guessing based on the Load in Diagram). Chesapeake had 60 teams and was a little tight (not Drexel DAC tight). I expect Champs with 88 teams will be a tighter. This is also due to average teams sizes being greater (another assumption on my part, but I don't expect many teams to have ~ 10 members).
Will it be cramped? Yes, especially Sat. Will you have to sit where there is space instead of with your team? Quite possibly if your team is big. Will scouting be inconvenient? Probably a little more than usual, especially if you have a lot of materials (files, computers).
However, it is a bit overblown and Bill posting that pic of incomplete bleachers (which look smaller) doesn't help. It would be nice if the field was there for size reference. I think that support for the lights (metal thing on the floor) is usually the length of the field, so maybe that is a reference (bleachers are significantly longer).
