Unless we see an Iowa regional in the very near future. But I honestly don't know how likely that is. The FRC community in the state is certainly growing close to the number of required teams.


How about a regional right on the MN / WI border - close enough that it's an easy trip for Iowa teams - and in an area that is both growing in FRC teams, yet ripe for explosive growth? Hmmmm. Wherever could that be.


Just a thought
