Thanks to all the students, coaches and volunteers who made our 12th annual TRASH tournament a success once again. We enjoy putting it together as much I hope all the kids have playing it all over the state. The set will be eventually sent out, although I'm working on editing some repeats out and a couple of factual errors. Once that is complete and I talk to some other people about mirrors, then I will clear it.
Stats to follow later this week when I finish re-entering them into the computer since all of us forgot to save the file to my flash drive.
We lost 5 teams from 4 schools this morning due to weather, so we had 36 teams playing the set. Had I know that was going to happen earlier, I would have prepared a typical 6 brackets of 6 scenario, but I had some other contingencies ready and they worked out. So we had 4 brackets of 7 and one of 8.
