new regional
A new regional makes sense if it does one of two things. First, allows teams from different areas to travel to a central location for competition. Second, opens up new areas to FIRST who otherwise might not get new teams into the mix. How about an upper Midwest regional in Minneapolis, Mn., Omaha, Nebraska, or Brookings, SD? Teams from this area have tremendous travel issues to get even to a close Regional is a 14 -20 hour trip.
Just a thought.
