Re: BATE 2.0, (3/7/09), @Bloomfield High School, NJ (mACF)
On some Westchester schedule (mainly of the local tournaments) it was listed as either the 7th or the 14th but that could have just been speculation on the part of whoever typed up the schedule.

Put Byram down tentatively for 2 teams- I'll fill out the official registration after running it by the coach. I may be mistaken, but NAQT States for NY is currently between this weekend and the weekend after. You might want to check that, as it would probably impact attendance.

Re: Byko Rankings 2008-2009
Do you have the results for the Yale Fall Tournament? Only one match is in the database from the tournament- I'm just wondering if that's just all you've inputted or if that's all you have. If you're missing some results, I can give you some, although not all.

Re: BHSAT XVIII (3/28/2009) at Yale (New Haven, CT)
Byram will bring two teams, one buzzer. I know this is way early, but I'd end up forgetting to put us down and then we'd lose the early registration bonus. Might as well be on my A game.
