I was surprised that Lower Merion wasn't top 5, and neither was Rustin... is there a reason for that?
If we look at their scores, they both brought two teams, and each school seemed to have split up their strongest members among both teams (maybe for experience). Just speculation though.

Later in the invitational season, I have no doubts that Rustin and Lower Merion will place higher.

Manually stacked and dropped 3 events rustin scored 185 (3rd) and LM 194 (4th).
Although if no events (for any team) were dropped they would place a bit lower even when stacked due to A and B sometimes bombing the same event

Speaking of which, whoever was updating it - how did you like the mechanics? Any issues that you think I should address?

It was great! It was easy to setup and use and the mechanics were good. Only suggestion is to add a predicted placement column, something like this(Column C of B/C Scoresheets). Thanks for creating this template! :D

Much appreciated! We're getting closer to Nats, but need to re-group and tighten up. Any suggestions?

Although your teams are probably not set in stone yet, one thing to watch out for is the timing on the States schedule. The NYS schedule is out (Draft) and I think it should be considered when choosing people so there are no conflicts since it is the most important tournament of the year. It will allow for people who will probably be doing those events at States to get the most practice and experience at Invitationals. It is only a Draft, but usually it is very similar to the finalized schedule and by the time that comes out, it may be too late for additional practice at tournaments if conflicts occur. Anyways, congratulations at LISO!
