Re: paper: 2013 MAR Champ Clinch Berth
Additionally, I expect at least 4 highly ranked MAR teams to decline their invitation to MAR Champs:
341 - Rank 1: Going to Las Vegas previous week
103 - Rank 6: Declined last year, see no indication they will attend this year (other than not registering for a regional)
365 - Rank 10: Going to Chesapeake same week. Student council voted for Baltimore with only 1 dissenter (our driver wanted the competitiveness of MAR Champs)
25 - Rank 24: Going to Las Vegas previous week
If that is the case (or if just 3 decline) that means 56 and 1367 clinch.
If you are a team on the bubble and want a rooting interest, root for these teams to accumulate as many MAR points as possible (as they will not push teams currently in the Top 50 out):
In Top 50 after 1 event:
11
56
1676
75 CA
224
3rd District Teams:
303
1279
3314
The tendency is for the top teams to continue to accumulate high point totals in their 2nd event (not surprising). Expect them to cause many other teams to clinch Sat by winning Qual Matches.
