Re: Best Week 2 regional

I actually think the Groton District will be the best event... no, the absolute top tier at Groton probably can't compete against that of San Diego, but Groton has an exceptionally strong upper-middle tier. After teams get warmed up on Day 1 (Saturday), expect the tournament to feel more like a DCMP on Sunday morning and afternoon than a week 2 event. Triple assists will probably be very reasonable for a lot of alliances, but will be challenged by a stronger alliance that can do truss-catches effectively.

So, I think the most interesting event to watch may actually be Groton...
