Re: Way Too Early Predictions
Simply based on point values we were worse (although I am a pessimist). Also, you can ignore DontWorryAboutIt from "Northville"pikachu4919 wrote:Could be bluffing - they're both pretty sarcastic, after all.DontWorryAboutIt wrote:Always a pessimistScottMaurer19 wrote: We thought our Northview results were weaker than last year

Probably their low 50s at the two NorCal comps so far and at Mesa Wilson So-Cal they beat JT by ~20 and had to do Code Busters instead of Game On (23 of their 116 points) due to the SoCal switch at that event. Kennedy should be a threat to win this year.kate! wrote:Also, what makes you think that Kennedy will do that well?

Re: Way Too Early Predictions
I do agree that Kennedy will be in the top 3 but when I made that statement, Kennedy had only been to one invitational, and though they had won I wasn't sure that would be enough for such a good nationals result. But now, and as they go to more invitationals, I think they'll definitely match Churchill's past results at nationals.SOPomo wrote:Probably their low 50s at the two NorCal comps so far and at Mesa Wilson So-Cal they beat JT by ~20 and had to do Code Busters instead of Game On (23 of their 116 points) due to the SoCal switch at that event.

Ohhh ok. Mason did not have any upper classmen compete except maybe one competing so take those results with a grain of salt.Unome wrote:Wait I think I confused Northview and Northmont...4Head wrote:Stronger?Unome wrote: Actually my primary motivation was the Northview results, which are stronger than I would have expected.

I agree, however I’m wondering whether Solon had a large number of experienced people as well for that tournament?ScottMaurer19 wrote:Ohhh ok.
