This will be my first year since 2008 not competing, so good luck to all Washingtonians this year!

My predicted state winners this year... B: ExCEL C: Camas (You guys are gonna rock nats this year!!!)

EDIT: Just saw that there is a new region for B division??? Must have quite a few teams.

My predicted state winners this year... B: Canyon Park (Don't get butterfly CP, ExCEL doesn't even have a full Alpha team. Lost about everyone. At least it will be nice to see a new team go to nationals :P ) C: Camas (You guys are gonna rock nats this year!!!)

Tornado! You're not competing!? Is Fossil still going to be on the highschool Excel team?

Yeah, fossil is competing, but he's not putting much into it this year.. I think he's focusing more on ocean bowl. I'm really really busy this year so I'm gonna take a break (I know... breaks are unheard of) :P

This is why it is so hard to get a division C homeschooled team to nationals. :( I keep calling people in Maryland, and I know lots of emails, flyers, etc have been distributed, but few high schoolers respond.

Why don't you just do it and not worry about the results, tornado guy? No matter how you do it is another decent EC for colleges, right?

I actually was going to do it, but then bagged out a few weeks ago. My schedule got really busy and I know I won't have any time to study. I guess I could go in but I'm WAY too competitive so I'd be kicking myself after I saw how bad I bombed :P

@Fozendog, Hey! That is just what fossil told me, lol! And I would've loved to have beaten you guys in WQ and DP ;)
