Registration will be live until Friday for this SCT site, against the possibility of last-minute registrations (however unlikely those may be).

We ran a merged field yesterday, due to insufficient teams in D1.

Cornell A won, followed by Cornell B and RPI A. The top scorer was Cornell B's Matt Moschella.

Thanks to Roger Solberg from Edinboro for filling in as reader for a sick house staffer, to Scott Kroner from NY MasterMinds for reading in the morning, and to the teams for bearing with me through the weather and the date change.
