Todd,
Fort Osage High School would like to use the SCOTTIE for our March "24/7" Tournament. We had multiple national qualifying teams at this tournament last year, and would like an appropriate set for those schools. Please let me know. Thanks, Josh Malecki

Hopefully, everyone who was looking for sets finds what they want for the year. It has been a tumultuous 4 years, but we will continue ...
