: Here are my unofficial results from the lonestar regional. This was a 40 team regional with nearly 20 rookie teams.
: Number 1 Seed: Exxon/Mobil/Boeing Tigers (#57)
: (ave qual pts were around 185 but don't hold me to it)
Team 57 is the Leopards (former Tigers). I'm a 57 alumni and I did all the t-shirts and buttons and face painting and all for 57 when they were still the Tigers. Apparently I did too good a job promoting the team theme because the title has stuck. It was a wonderful theme being that they're sponsored by Exxon, however, after the Mobil merger Exxon requested that they drop the Tigers and come up with something else. Leopards was voted the new name with Monkeys in a close second (though I dont think the Leopards had the popular vote. The electoral college (mentors) swung the vote in favor of the Leopards due to the obvious complications of having a team full of monkeys).
