Thanks to everyone who came out to DeKalb for Delta Burke yesterday! I hope all teams had a great time. Especially big thanks to Paul Drube, Mike Laudermith, Victoria Likeum, Cindy Long, Danielle Long, Dylan Minarik, Elissa Pape, Kristin E.K.

Field is now full. I will send out a logistics email within the next few days.

With the registration of Eureka, I'm going to temporarily close the field until I hear back from Drake and Eureka on the exact number of teams they are bringing. I'll be starting a wait list, and priority will be given to teams that can provide a moderator.

Field is now half full.

Field: (12/12)
NIU (2)

The field cap is 24 teams, and will not be expanded. If you would like to be placed on the wait list, email me to let me know. (And so that I have a record of it.)

We've decided to split the field into two divisions, Competitive and Standard. I've emailed all the coaches asking them to make a decision on which division to place their team into. We reserve the right to to deny a team entry to the standard division if they are known to be a strong team.

Awesome. Can you send me an email? Just so that I can have a record of it. Thanks!

There will be a Team Illinois practice, run by coaches Fischer and Prince, held immediately after this tournament concludes. If you would like more details, email them at [email protected] and [email protected].

Barrington is trying to get a team for this. I may be able to just go by myself if nobody else wants to go. I believe I included your coach in the email blast I sent out the other day. If not, let me know and I can get it to him (or just show him this thread). If you need to go unaffiliated, email ...

I emailed who I assume is the TD, but I'll also post here. NIU made other plans between when this tournament was cancelled, and when it was un-cancelled. So, we won't be in attendance.

I asked Tom if he needed help in the beginning, but was basically denied. Just like everyone else, I was given affirmations as to when he would be able to deliver the set (the Friday before or the Saturday of) until the Thursday before our tournament, upon which we changed the set to BELLOCO and To...

I emailed Tom Moore after I heard that there were issues with this set. From what he has told me, the set has not been completed yet. He has also told me that he plans to have it done next Friday.

Do you have a field update?

Yes, we're coming.
