I should move to South Carolina...
Part of me wishes there was more balance in the way things are divided.

PA is up there with the states that have to most team. We have 6 regions, 35 teams from each division compete at states. 38 teams for division C in our region, and I think 37 from B division. The top 8 from C division go to states, and the top 10 from B go to states. 3 of the 4 teams sent from PA to nationals came from the region, the only one that didn't was Sewickley Middle School (did I spell that right?).
Anyway regionals are run pretty well, we have every event and most supervisors are competent. It still isn't run quite as well as states and nationals though.
no sewickley was first in b div in states and Bala Cynwyd MS (me) was 2nd
and penn crest and harriton (which is in my district) went to nationals for c div.
it was shady side that didn't go last year

Haha, we've got about 9 or 10 teams per division, and our town is the only one that does anything but state. I mean, the others would go to nats if they got first, but we're the only ones who have locals, aka tryouts. The others just recruit, I guess.
