There are a lot of good programs in the region, especially when we get to know the context of what is happening behind the scenes on a given team by actually listening to their stories.
We too feel honored to be long-time friends with GaCo and the RoboBees. We look forward to seeing you guys at DCMPS!
Edit - BY THE WAY
Doswell needs more refs. If you want to ref, know the rules and feel you can pass the ref test, contact Sally and she'll put you in touch with Janet. If there aren't any 'extra' refs for the current refs to rotate out, expect a few missed calls/etc to really upset teams. This game doesn't get any easier to ref just because it's later in the season.

I find all speculation to be pretty trippy. I mostly just wanted to bring attention to 836, a team that has won many RCAs in the past because they are a great team. If you ctrl+F the DC-MD-VA events from last year, you don't see the fact that they won it in Palmetto, Week 1. That's just one obvious observation I thought was missing.
Re: referees, we are all new to the district system and 422 is also in a position where we are graduating alumni who want to come back and work with the program in certain significant ways as a volunteer. When we got an email for Blacksburg, we had a couple people hop in the fray. It might sound backwards but dropping a line to coaches as soon as possible on specific needs can help all of us throw some names out. People who have never volunteered are not in the VIMS database, but they are in my address book!
