Re: Texas 2017
Sometimes Science Olympiad works in unpredictable ways. Tests are always different, and sometimes stress plays a factor. My guess is Seven Lakes just had an unlucky day. They are still one heck of a good team.

Re: Texas 2017
Such is the way of Texas State, arguably one of the most volatile tournaments in SciO.

Re: Texas 2017
True, but (based on 2016 numbers since we don't have 2017 yet) if Missouri gains even 10 Div C teams that may be enough for them to pass Texas C. In addition, Florida is one of the fastest growing states, so they'll probably pass Texas and/or Missouri in the next few years.pikachu4919 wrote:I thought Florida (in B) and Missouri (in C) were at the bottom of the two-teams list as of this past national tournamentUnome wrote:Y'all better start recruiting more teams.
