They do?
Even trial events?
I wasn't including trial events. Some states such as NY allowed teams to count trial events towards their team score if they dropped other events (although I think this was discontinued).
As it were, trial events weren't a thing at our regionals, so...

The benefit of our SO team not getting much funding from the school means that we aren't dependent on outside funding, and therefore are less affected when budget problems arise.

The downside of our SO team not getting much funding from the school means that we can't afford to attend as many invites as we'd like because we'd have to pay for it all out of pocket.
