Is this still going on? Did anyone collect any such information this year?

Both PACE NSC and NAQT HSNCT asked coaches where their seniors were headed next year, so they should have a lot of good data.

I have that data that was going to be distributed as part of the list of rosters, but I don't think it ever got out. Can send or post to PACE website if webmaster desires. Give me a bit of time to get the final program ready for posting.

I have some contact info from players in the Southern California area that might be interested in continuing to play in college. It should (hopefully) be distributed to the relevant school contacts soon.

It exists. Dwight says the results should be available within a week to ten days.

Hey, is it available? We're running our first practice this week and would like to see if we missed anyone who goes to MU.

The list seems to be missing some people--I put down the destinations of my whole HSNCT team when Dwight asked me to there, but none of us are listed.

In case anyone is confused, the list is available at http://www.fraughtmachine.com/efcontact/2009.html

Once again, everyone owes a big thanks to Dwight Kidder for putting together this information. Anyone interested in the future of college quizbowl should be combing this list and making plans with their clubs to contact the relevant players.

So, I finally got this out last week, and I'm noticing that it's different from the Kidder list, so I'm quite confused, especially since I got the contact info after the presumptive May 1 deadline. Also, there's at least one person listed as going to two different colleges.

Is anyone making an attempt to contact all of these schools that have a bunch of people going there but no program I've ever heard of? As the most noticeable of those schools, every year, there's like a whole page or more worth of New Yorkers going to SUNY-(city), and I don't ever remember seeing SUNY-anything at anything other than CBI.

With all the people going to SUNY Buffalo I would have expected them to have a competitive quizbowl team... or a quizbowl team at least =O. I'm surprised.
