Re: SuperRegionals in 2008
Chesapeake can also very easily expand. It's been mentioned a number of times in the thread that 70-80 teams are absolutely no problem on the site. From going in Halsey Field House itself, in my opinion, it seems barren with 50-65 teams (in other words, it's not crowded enough). And a second field can easily be supported.

The other thing I would love to see happen is a Super Regional at College Park in either the Comcast Center or Cole Field House, depending on whether the Terps play in the NCAA or NIT. I know there are tons of huge shows over at Cole Field House, so it will certianly not be a problem. The advantage is that it is just a relatively short walk from a potential team social site (Terp Zone). That could probably support 100-120 teams on 2-3 fields.

I'm pretty sure you could get the Dean of Engineering, Dr. Nariman Favradin; or even our president Dr. Mote (a mechanical engineer himself who's done a whole lot to improve Maryland). The only problem is hotels. I would reccomend staying away from college park, mostly because of the crime there.
