I take it then that you go to stevenson, and you really shouldn't judge competition by invites. They indicate next to nothing because most teams grow exponentially by state.[/quote]

LOL no, I'm from Indiana! I guess you have a good point, our invites in Indiana usually give a good idea what's going to happen at states. :)

Teams like New Trier usually don't perform as well at the earlier invitationals because they have so many people. The early invites are usually to weed out the students that aren't serious enough or good enough at their events. I would not judge New Trier on any one invitational unless it is right before regionals, and then I would still be skeptical.

It looks like we're pretty good at this. Weren't those the overall places? 1st- NT-Winnetka, 2nd-Stevenson, 3rd-IMSA, 4th-Naperville Central, 5th-CL Central?
There once was a group of teens
Who were lean mean science machines.
They liked to win medals,
when everything settles
and their favorite color was green.

*facepalm*
100% of deaths are somehow caused by science.
Don't be a statistic.
Don't do science.
