Yeah, and we'll let you know how we did after states. We're not going to tell you just yet.

well i think the top scores in states will be around 1500 or something. but, it depends on the state you're in. in my state, pennsylvania, i think there will be very high efficiencies because it's a very competitive state.

Seeing as you're from MI, I think that 864 will be top 15. The top scores are all going to be around 1500 or above. (results from my region were around here)

"acceptable" is a very relative term. If you're hoping to win or place in the medals, then no, that probably will not be good enough. If you're hoping to get top 15 or 20, then yes, you'll be fine.

It varies a lot state to state. In some states the winning scores have not been over 1,000. For PA states next weekend, every event is always very competitive, and I think the winning scores in both divisions will be about 2,000. In Kansas and Indiana, winning scores in both divisions were also over 2,000. I believe in Minnesota though, no one got to 1,000. In Michigan, there will be scores above 1500 for sure, and probably the winning scores will be closer to 1800. Only time will tell, however.
