The only events a decent distance away for 229 are the NY regionals, Montreal and Pittsburgh.
The moving up a week also limits the regionals for the teams who can't/don't want to compete back to back. Assuming Pittsburgh stays week 2 that eliminates Pittsburgh for those teams.

Edit: just checked out California university of PA academic calendar and their spring break is the same week as FLR. Wouldn't surprise me if FLR TVR And Pitt are all the same week.
