My airfare just for Atlanta was somewhere in the 440's.

Airfare has to be a major consideration for most teams. Of course it costs more to go to the east coast from the west and vice versa. This is not even mentioning international travel for some of the FRC teams. Perhaps go through a travel agent or get real creative with your flight searches on the web.
You should be able to find less expensive flights. Leaving LAX Wed and leaving ATL Sun, through Travelocity, I just found round trip Airtran (non-stop), United & Americawest flights from LAX leaving late night arriving 5-6 am in ATL. This was for 6 people and the total costs including fees & taxes was $334-$347 each. If you can get more creative on your travel dates they had flights for $244 round trip. Of course arriving early morning in ATL saves you another night in a hotel.
