Pennsylvania 2013

[AlphaTauri]

Well, it's pretty official by this point...no invitationals for us this year :[ Long story short, no transportation to Athens (despite us getting all our clearances and approvals back in November) and no time to get cleared for Harriton.

So yeah, everyone who's going to Athens - have fun, I wish I was there, and maybe I'll still see some of you at States.

We are down to 2 months before competition. Where did all my wonderful time to prepare for Regionals go?

Northeast Team Numbers are posted. Looks like Wyoming Area makes its triumphant return!

[rissapf13]

Out of curiosity, are there any teams that are going to Comet?

Abington Heights and J.T. Lambert are probably going. I'm not sure about others. I think Gelinas was there last year.

To anyone who's going to Athens invitational, who's excited?

Were you there last year? It's a very nice invitational, even when it's snowy and cold.

Yes, JT Lambert and Abington are going. Of course!!!
I'm really excited for Comet and all the competitions this year. JTL has a new big wave of 8th graders and 6th graders this year, and we've been working a bit more than our terrible team did last year.
Oh, and Strath Haven Middle School is going also. Just out of curiosity...is there anyone in Pennsylvania who doesn't know Strath Haven? 'Cause I know our team sure does...

Congrats Strath Haven for 2nd place at Conestoga!

Anyone have team placings?

You go to Strath Haven? You're lucky.
Our time praises/hates your team because you're just...I don't know...amazing.
I am truly jealous. Half my team doesn't work.
JTL came in 17th in the state last year! Completely terrible.
I hope we can get close or even beat our 5th place record this year.
You're probably laughing at me because I think 5th place is good...
I'm going to stop rambling on like this...
But will you guys still be at Rustin and Comet?

I'm expecting some pretty tough competition at Rustin next weekend, from what I've heard in this thread.

Correct me if I'm wrong on NY Teams:

Paul J. Gelinas (1st in Suffolk County, 2nd in state [NY], 14th in nation)
C.P. Weber (1st in Nassau County, 3rd in state [NY])

And I know more, I just can't think of it off the top of my head. Care to add names and/or rankings to the list if you're going?

There are only 4 New York teams: Eagle Hill (unless for some reason you didn't include them in your list), Paul J. Gelinas, and C.P. Weber, the top three teams from NY States last year, and then Seton Catholic, whom I've never heard of.

From PA, I only remember the following teams are going: Strath Haven (2nd at PA States), Bala Cynwyd (3rd), Allen (6th), Whitehall-Coplay (8th), and Abington Heights (9th).

It sounds much more competitive than 2 years ago...I'm so excited! (and nervous)

[EastStroudsburg13]

JT Lambert is going to Rustin too. I think there are a few more but that's the only other one I know.

Congrats indeed to all the teams (particularly Harriton, Penncrest, and Rustin ). I really wish I could've been there - Athens sure sounds like it was awesome - but oh well, c'est la vie.
