As far as I know, Georgia is the only state that psuedo-randomly places teams, although I think they put some teams together on purpose (like 1648 being next to our mentee teams 5651 and 6177 at Columbus).

Thanks for all your input! I will be sure to pass on this to the planning committee for the Gainsville District Qualifying Event in March.

You are right, there will be less space. The March event will have 6 more teams and a quarter-sized practice field in addition to a full inspection station and machine shop.
