Re: Championship 2007 Question
Its a tighter schedule, but I prefer it that way. I really dislike waiting a month after regionals for the Championship. There are a lot of factors that play into the date, though, and there's little any one party can do about it.
I believe it was in 2001 that the Midwest Regional (and all other regionals that week of course) fell on Easter weekend. I think that was the same year Nationals were held the first weekend of April (5-7th I believe, which was nice for Dean's birthday on the 7th).
Next year, kickoff will be the 6th, Ship date will be the 20th, there will be a weekend of rest, 5 weeks of regionals in March, a week of rest, and then Atlanta. I like it a lot. There are a lot of schools that start their spring break with Good Friday so this will work out for those schools (and us at MSOE!).
