NASA Grant for 2013 FRC?

[Mark McLeod]

Certainly something wierd.
By the letter of the rules, no veteran Regional Challenge Grants would be awarded.
If this is true the text for it probably should have been removed, so it's probably there for the TBD event.

Only South Florida was a rookie last year. NC and Utah were both rookie events three years ago, but they could dwell on the list if rookies keep getting Challenge Grants I suppose.

By definition, 2nd-year teams for Regional Challenge Grants must go to what is at least a second year event, so South Florida should be expected to again appear on the 2013 list for the 2nd-year applicants. It's also possible that subsequent rookie grant awards to 2nd+ year NASA sponsored Regionals would keep NC and Utah on the list for multiple years.
