Can we get a field update or are we actually the only school sending any teams at the moment?

As of right now, yes Langley is the only team registered right now. We have gotten verbal commitments from some schools, but they haven't registered yet. We expect to get more registrations after VHSL states.

Get your registrations in! We'll be closing the field on Wednesday night! For those signed up already, I'll be sending out information once our field gets finalized.
