Let us have our moment

The PA state schedule is too often released way too late and leaves schools scrambling to make their teams as quickly as possible, especially when there are event conflicts and new partners come together into an event that they have never worked together on. It is very helpful that it was released this early because now teams can test combinations of participants together in different events, even if the schedule might change a bit later.

Now they just have to release the team numbers earlier...

PA definitely, lol. I'd be willing to say that it's been the last state schedule released in some past years. And it seems as though every team has the same conflicts, so team number won't be as crucial for planning event assignments.

It's about time. The every-team-at-once schedule for Disease was a nightmare.
Also I can't believe no one has brought this up yet, but it almost exactly matches the conflicts of the Nats schedule. I've also heard talk that PASO is trying to standardize schedules for Regionals and Invites to match the States schedule, so PA teams may have a very consistent year schedule-wise.

Yes, they announced at the Coaches Clinic at Penn State last Saturday that they were going to standardize the schedules for Regionals, Invitationals, and States by aligning them with the national schedule.

It
should be the same as the national schedule.
