If Troy has competed this year already it has been at a regional tournament only, which is meaningless competition to analyze this team's strength.

Pretty sure that they will win SoCal state tourney to advance to Nats as they've been doing for the past decade.

Nobody knows how strong Grand Haven is. I'm pretty sure they don't do any invitationals, but then again, they're strong. they always are, so it's safe to assume that they're strong.

That's not true. Many factors were involved. That alone wouldn't have made a difference.

They have a good shot, but it's not exactly "for sure".

Grand Haven is in, and then it's down to Plymouth Christian, Troy, and West Ottawa... although I'm not sure West Ottawa has what it takes this year...

I'd put my money on Troy for second, but maybe that's just cuz they've been owning my teams all my life...

for colorado, it's quite unsure. Blevins normally always goes, but it doesn't look like that this year for Preston beat them at regionals. Also, Lesher normally gets second at their regionals, but this year they got 14th :shock: . My school may have a chance and I sure hope so, Connec beat us by about 40 points because our write it do it writer is horrible and we got 28th. We also had an upset in Battery Buggy where we were put in the second teir for having too wide of wheels, and during the run, a wheel feel off :( . if we fix these problems and study hard, Platte River Academy could go to nationals. The others in the running are Connect #1, Preston, Blevins, and maybe homeschool group.

I don't think I let my team down though, I competed in six events and got 1st at Ecology, 2nd at Ornithology, 2nd at Anatomy, 2nd at Experimental Design, 3d at Science Crime Busters, and 5th at Trajectory. I was pretty happy
