I think the major issue is the venue availability. I know that for Finger Lakes Regional the event is held on a date the corresponds with RIT's spring break. My guess is that Tech Valley scheduled theirs because that was a time that works best for RPI.
Unfortunately, the only way I see to get around this would be to change venues.
