Also note that the new WPI Regional should alleviate some of the pressure on GSR.

The regionals are holding back 10 spots for new rookie teams. They tend to do this every year. I'm not sure if this year it is more transparent or what, but it seems that there is a little bit of confusion. This means the actual capacity of the Granite State Regional is closer to 48 teams (which is where it has been in the past) and the capacity for the WPI regional is 36 teams.
