Also, if you don't mind me asking are you from Mason or Mentor? (or some other "MHS" in OH?)

A few unrelated things:
- I just "manually stacked" Mason's and Solon's Sylvania Northview results and got 108 for Mason and 160 for Solon.
- Chardon A placed 27th at Westlake?!?! Despite a 5th place finish at states last year.
I meant a bit of both "day of" and in prep, but was generally referring to the end of the season with States. Also, I'm from Mason.
Congrats on the win at Westlake! See you again at MIT :)
Thanks! it was p unexpected tbh, I assumed 3rd or 4th. We didn't even get a team photo which is honestly the biggest loss. And yea, see you in 2 weeks :D

For Solon I feel like they start off on a good foot in specific events and just work slow and steady for their others.

It should be noted that Chardon scratched almost every building event.

Does anyone out there know the status of the Kenston Invitational? There's supposed to be some pretty bad weather around Cleveland this weekend so what are the odds that it'll be canceled? Wouldn't want to drive all the way from Pittsburgh to be stuck and not even competing.

So far they have not cancelled... I'm hoping they stay the course and still hold the event. Most of the local teams will face the weather to attend.

Unfortunately, Shady Side is not local, so our Div C team will not be attending. Our Div B team as of now sounds like they're still going to be there though haha... We will have access to the tests even though we are not attending, correct?

Div B will try to attend, as long as the invite isn’t cancelled. Our coach is letting people not go if they don’t want to because of the snow.
