Regarding NAQT states- be aware that you will draw substantially fewer northern va teams than usual, as April 23 is the date of Richard Montgomery's Rumble on the Pike.

yeah sorry about messup number two. I must have gotten it confused with the joint college tournament we're holding. I've fixed it now.

UVA had a well-organized tournament with very good readers overall. I encourage teams that did not make it this year to consider attending their tournament in the future. Thanks to the UVA Academic Club for hosting the tournament!
