See the post above ya. They don't have one that's big enough.

Something that most folks east of the Rockies don't necessarily understand is that many of the high schools on the west coast (Vegas included) don't exactly have the largest gyms or other indoor athletic facilities. If I were told "come up with a list of high schools in your area (L.A.) that could host a 40-team event for three days plus setup", I'd be hard-pressed. I might be able to come up with 4-5, but I'd really have to think about it to get more. The reason: We don't have "weather". We have "climate" with a side of "mild rainy season".
