No I was more along the lines insinuating that Raymond Park has an active team/coach and that might be an easy contact since you are all in the same area. Either way, I think a conversation should be had at the opening ceremony at state and see what the interest is.I agree, but Carmel doesn't have the resources to set one up without cooperation from an area Division B school. We don't have any feeders or alumni or coaches who have any experience with supervising Division B or catering to those needs. Unless RPMS (I think you're from RPMS?) did quite a bit of work on this portion I think for the first year its more feasible to just do Division C, but I personally don't want it that w

Re: Indiana 2018
Raymond Park would be willing to help/run an invitational if, like Carmel, we had a guaranteed amount of teams. We easily have the facility. It just comes down to doing all of that work for only 5 teams vs. 30 teams. A Carmel/RP Invitational isn't a bad idea. We'll talk to the Carmel coaches next weekend.No I was more along the lines insinuating that Raymond Park has an active team/coach and that might be an easy contact since you are all in the same area.

(Tho honestly anything can happen and I wouldn’t be surprised if my predictions were wrong!)
EDIT: On second thoughts, Wilbur Wright has been doing pretty well. I haven't really followed Chesterton that much, but considering they've been top 3 for the past couple years, I wouldn't count them out of the top 5. I haven't seen many results from them to base off of, so I'm not sure where they stand in relation to Tri-North, Wilbur Wright, and Raymond Park. However, if Raymond Park still has the same enthusiasm and momentum that I remember them having when seeing them at competitions, then they could very well take second again, and I'm still a little hesitant to put Wilbur Wright high up since they've tended to underperform at State for the past couple years (and when they made nats in 2014 they were 42nd, which the lowest placement for any Indiana team that's made nats).

Re: Indiana 2018
I'm predicting a tighter B race this year with TJ, Raymond Park, and WIlbur Wright that could go any direction. Division C I'm predicting that Munster runs away with it.Ender1982 wrote:

Division C:
1. Munster/Carmel
2. Munster/Carmel

These are my predictions. I think it could go either way for division C. I think Wilbur Wright will do pretty good this year in division B.

Re: Indiana 2018
I don't think you can count Bloomington South out of the top five, and I think that LC will probably beat Whiting too.Sequence wrote:I think WW will get first this year. I heard they're putting in some more effort this year.Sequenced wrote:Division B:
