2008 Regional Registration Progress

[Richard Wallace]

With ten days to go until 2nd Regional registration opens, 1001 teams have registered: 862 veterans and 139 rookies. There are 728 published spots still open so registration is apparently 58% full. [Of course this neglects an unknown number of spots being held open for expected rookie teams at several regionals.]

Nine regionals are at their published registration capacity: BAE Granite State, Midwest, Greater Kansas City, NASA VCU, Detroit, Oklahoma City, Boston, Hawaii, and SBPLI Long Island. And Florida is all but full with only one published spot open.
