Re: Registration 2011

We received word a few days back that we had been added to the line-up in Lone Star. It's good to see our name on the list this morning.

Not sure, but I don't think they've updated Dallas, have they, Mark?

Probably 3588 from Lindbergh HS in Renton, WA.

They competed as one of the original teams.

Team 3588 from Renton, WA last played in 1993. (What Madison said)

Dallas hasn't changed since the 15th.

Re: Registration 2011

So watching the NFL draft is boooooriiiig. I'm going to start a campaign to get you on Sports Center to talk about the teams, who is going where and why, the relationships with rookie teams, etc.

Thanks Mark, it was a good year of runup. Now to watch teams fill into the championships.

Re: Registration 2011

Both Pittsburgh and North Carolina have had teams added off the waitlist. I'm not sure if they are done yet - Pittsburgh claimed to have up to 39 total spots.

Re: Registration 2011

How about this...
  • 14% of the teams are "away" teams at the Long Island Regional.
  • 0% of the Michigan District teams are away teams.
In other words they aren't a local team in the sense that they live in a different area that is covered by a different "home" Regional.

If some of you are willing to take a shot at your own local Regionals, where you know who's just visiting and who always comes, I could do the remainder. It would be a coarse estimate across most of the events, since we have limited local knowledge, but it could be based on where teams consistently go over the past, say three years.

For the CT regional I come up with 28% away counting only CT teams as local.

Re: Registration 2011

For the Philadelphia Regional, I count about 63% under ~1 hour of travel, and 42% with around 30min or less. (That's from PA, NJ, and DE.)

Estimated to nearest 15min
Average - 1:20
Media - 0:45
Mode - 0:30

Re: Registration 2011

For WPI in its second year, 17 out of 34 are new to the event after the wait list was cleared.
For Boston, 5 out of 45 are new to the event--before the wait list is cleared.
