Re: Split Champs assignment

Really disappointed that NC got assigned to Houston. The trip to Houston is around 200 miles further than to St. Louis and 400 miles further than to Detroit. We will be looking at significantly high bus/flight costs (not to mention possibly needing a third driver if bussing) as well as increased travel time.
I understand the need to balance the teams, but an additional 400 miles (or more from other places) is a massive burden to put on teams looking to grow.
