Double post for new rules clarification from Florida.....mhmmm interesting. Happy with this change since I complained a lot about invasive last year in Florida.

"Changed on 10/3/2016: Florida will use the National Invasive Species Official List. There will be no Florida invasive species list."

1.) Boca Raton Team 1
2.) Boca Raton Team 2
3.) Archimedean Team 1
4.) FAU Varsity
5.) Archimedean Team 2

Real close prediction windu

1) Boca Raton Team 1
2) Archimedean Team 1
3) Boca Raton Team 2
4) FAU High School 1
5) Cardinal Gibbons 1
Note: Scores haven't been completely finalized just yet.

Will say FAU regionals had some major issues this year. Since Hovercraft scores were completely removed and supposedly there was an issue with Helicopters too. Also, a lot of events had some real fundamental flaws with event supervisors running the events incorrectly.

Good luck to everyone at states tomorrow!
