Fifth HFT Mirror at Rockford Auburn (IL) 12/1/12

Post by Coach G »

I am starting this thread for the Dec. 1 Auburn HFT Mirror to share information, answer questions, and report results of the tournament. As of earlier this afternoon, the field, in alpha order, is:

Auburn -2
Belvidere North -2
Carbondale
Chicago Latin
Detroit Central Catholic
Dorman
Fenton
IMSA - 2
Keith Country Day - 2
Loyola
Macomb
Metea Valley
Plainfield North (?) - coach needs to confirm it
Rock Island
Rockford Christian Life
St. Viator - 2
Stevenson - 2
Wheaton Academy - 2
Wheaton North - 2
Wheaton-Warrenville South - 2
Whitney Young

Waiting List: Ch. Latin B, Metea Valley B, Sterling Newman, Wheaton Academy C

That is 30 (maybe more). We have enough moderators confirmed to go to 36, if we have that many solid confirmed teams. There may be some late entries (or ones already FAXed or sent by snail mail) that did not get put in my mailbox yet; I need to check on that.
Anyway, If it's 30, we will either run two divisions (12 in the very competitive division, playing a round robin, and 18 in the standard division, divided into three seeded pools of six in the AM, then rebracketed for the PM based on AM results) or have five seeded pools of six in the AM, with rebracketing based on AM results for the PM. Either way, every team is guaranteed either 10 or 11 matches. I will be sending coaches an email about this within a day or two, asking which division they wish their team(s) to play in if we go with divisions. If we have 36, then one division of 12 (round robin) and a standard division of 24 (4 pools of 6) would work well for this field, I think.

I will update the field above as any changes occur, and add some other information that I am sending to coaches later this week.

Field update: Coach Wanner let me know that Plainfield North is not able to come; Whitney Young and Christian Life cancelled.
I am offering those three spots to Metea Valley B, Latin B, and Sterling Newman. If they can join us, that still leaves a field of 30, with Wheaton Academy C "in the wings".

What kind of bracketing was used for the first six rounds in competitive? I've never seen a round robin turn out quite like that.

Northwestern B '14
Loyola (inactive) '21
