150 matches per field can be done over Thursday and Friday.
The winning alliances from all 8 fields move on Saturday for an Elite Eight type setup.
Field names?
1. Archimedes
2. Curie
3. Newton
4. Galileo
5. proposed - Pythagoras
6. proposed - Hubble
7. proposed - Euclid
8. proposed - Kepler
Any other suggestions?

How about some serious research and suggestions for naming potential new divisions after famous females? Is Marie Curie the only famous female in STEM? Seriously
Do some research on these and others and then post some suggestions:
Lise Meitner (1878-1968)
Emmy Noether (1882-1935)
Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin (1900-1979)
Barbara McClintock
Ada Byron (Countess of Lovelace)
...
The Curie curse has been broken so bring on more female division names.
