Look at that. . .
Well, I just checked the FIRST site and there are now 39 teams registered for the LI regional, so they've already begun allowing more teams in. . . and they're Long Island teams, too.
So much for automatically getting all of the rookie awards, though
There's one spot available for Nats., too, dsepite the fact that there's 12 teams on the waiting list. So if any even numbered teams missed out, go sign up quick!
