I agree. Thursday morning needed a 7am opening. I was there from Newton division by 7:10 am which was physically the fastest we could get there after having our backpacks searched (haha) and Speedwalking to the pit and then the practice field. We were already 20 deep. I am very grateful for the teams and volunteers that were incredibly gracious to allow us to move to the front since we were in match one on newton. We needed five minutes at a tower and to scale once. Thank you so much.
FYI we tracked or pit crew..on Thursday they walked 13.5 miles, Friday 12.6 miles.
