Field Update:

Palisades Charter 1
La Jolla 2-3
RB 1-2
Hart 1
Santa Monica 2
North Hollywood 2

I know Arcadia expressed interest, but I haven't heard back from them. Also, somebody pointed out to me that the main post does not indicate that this is an NAQT Qualifier. I would like to assure everyone that it is in fact a qualifier for HSNCT.

If you need an extra staffer, I should be able to get there.

Arcadia is, in fact going to be there. We will have four teams, one staffer, and two buzzers. Sorry that someone had not confirmed as of yet, I thought our captains had confirmed with you. Christopher Schultz - Quiz Bowl Advisor, Arcadia High School

Hopefully, the final field update:

La Jolla 3
RB 1
Santa Monica 1
North Hollywood 2
Arcadia 4
Rancho Alamitos 2

Also, my phone number, if there should be any problems getting to Caltech on tournament day, is 916 477 9197.

Results?

When will stats be announced?

Hey what's going on? It's been almost a week and stats are not out?

I find it faintly amusing that the first request for stats came before the tournament even began.

The post was originally about a field update, but it was edited after the tournament.

Stats will eventually be up on Caltech's website, but for now, they are here: http://results.scobo.net/SQBS.aspx?org= ... =standings
