Truman State plans on bringing at least one team to this, I believe. I will get back to you when I know for sure but we should be free that weekend.

Why yes, this tournament did in fact happen, and ran fairly smoothly despite finals extending a bit late into the evening.

We held the tournament as a 9-team round robin followed by a playoff with the top four teams. Harding defeated Texas-Austin in the playoffs to come in first (though they're listed second on the website since the final rounds are bunched in with the complete stats - we're working on that). Tulsa and Kansas State were also in the four-team finals, coming in 3rd and 4th respectively.

The rest of the stats can be found here: http://www.ou.edu/student/okacf/results ... dings.html

Thanks to all who came and helped to make this tournament a success.

Looking at K State's team, I noticed that Fidel is conspicuously absent (again). Did he just stop playing quizbowl or what?

I must say that the moderation at this tournament was excellent. Nicely done OU.
