Re: Pennsylvania 2016
Since no one in PA is active anymore, I guess I'll start some discussion. Was Great Neck South always that good? I would have predicted them to be around 6th or 7th at Valley Forge (although maybe I'm just overestimating PA teams). Also, whatever happened to Athens' tournament?

Re: Pennsylvania 2016
Keep in mind that Harriton plays their rookie team at Conestoga and Conestoga split their teams pretty heavily. Even so, Great Neck South did very well, better than I would've expected looking at Islip.Unome wrote:Since no one in PA is active anymore, I guess I'll start some discussion.

Don't quote me on this, but I heard through the grapevine that Athens' tournament didn't happen due to lack of interest.

Re: Pennsylvania 2016
Not trying to downplay Great Neck South's accomplishments as they competed rather well, but I definitely would not underestimate the PA teams just based on Valley Forge. Mainly because Harriton went out a week later and killed it at MIT, and also because Rustin split their teams pretty evenly while Stoga split into 3 teams. Based on some of the invitationals though, states looks like it's gonna be a pretty good fight.finagle29 wrote:Keep in mind that Harriton plays their rookie team at Conestoga and Conestoga split their teams pretty heavily.

Re: Pennsylvania 2016
I usually post predictions, but I'm probably going to wait until after the results from Tiger come out to do that.

Re: Pennsylvania 2016
Does anyone know how many PA teams are registered this year? Does anyone know how many teams from each region will qualify for states?
