Illinois 2020

Yeah. West is looking really strong again this year (I think that might've been their JV team?) We haven't seen their varsity yet, but results like these are very interesting. It's also peculiar that Marquette is coming to more Illinois invites. Just trying to get more invys in I guess.

Everyone knows all the good invites are in IL. Come to the CLC invite next year lol.

By the way, I'm pretty new to SciOly. This is my second year, and I would like to say thank you to all the people on the forums. It helped through the process sooooooo much! Thank you!

Yeah, welcome! Thanks for posting the results!

It just hurts seeing Woodland (team im in :>) going from 16th to 3rd to 10th at an invitational

And now the race for state begins...
Any predictions for regional upsets and top 10 at state?

I think the top 5 schools will remain the same as last year, though not necessarily in the same order. I think I remember UC Lab Schools doing pretty well at an invitational this year but it seems like some results may have been removed from avogadro? 6-10 seems a lot less set in stone this year with some of the 6th-10th place teams from last year placing below some other schools. Though I feel like we have a lack of invitational results to look at, so I'll definitely wait until after regionals to make more specific predictions. However, based on the results I have access to, Walter Payton, Lisle, and Warren Township seem to have made significant improvements from last year.

Here's what I will say: specifically for Division C, it doesn't look like the top 5 will change. I do think the top 10, even the top 20, has potential to change quite a bit. It's going to be very hard to predict state placements for high school. Division B seems to have a clearer picture of which teams have the potential to be top 10. Additionally, I think top 5 for middle school has some open slots.

Look, first we have to know who qualifies. I probably won't be predicting anything for state until regionals are done. Not only do I think this is fair, but I honestly just need more scores in order to come to any conclusions.
