Due to lack of interest from high school teams, this tournament will be canceled. My apologies to the two Wilmington Charter teams that were signed up.

sarangyeola

Currently, Charter is the only school signed up for the high school mirror of ACF Fall. For now, the tournament is happening but since we’ve had little interest from high schools, it is very likely to be canceled. I will make this decision in the next couple of days and provide an update accordingly.

sarangyeola

If your school has registered through ACF's central registration but has not contacted me, your registration is not complete. Please make sure to follow both steps of the registration process when signing up for this tournament.

The bio in this set was good! I don't think I have any errata, although I'd like to see the insulin tossup since I think I remember a PTEN clue that confused me. The PTEN clue was in the thyroid tossup: Cancer in the prostate, breasts, uterus, and this structure can be caused by mutations in PTEN. ...
