We plan on hosting Ragnarok this weekend, followed by Titanomachy in October, and a CC tournament called "Admiral Ackbar" in December. In the spring we plan on hosting a PACE high-school tournament, along with the Alabama NAQT High-School State Championship. We have also submitted bids to host NAQT Sectionals and ACF Regionals, but we have no idea if we will be awarded those. We have fairly strong backing from our administration, but it has been made clear to us that we need to present ourselves as a functioning organization that does more than take money from the school to go play quizbowl.

UAB does not support quizbowl, and won't for lack of funds (I've asked). Same goes for a whole lot of things when it comes to the relationship between UAB and UA (e.g. Jimbo Fisher, subsidization of UAT with medical school and hospital income).

It was a fun, albeit small tournament. At least the early finish allowed us to watch the second half of the cocktail party...
I'm sure the 'Bama people will be along with full stats soon.

Hey guys, here are the results. Sorry for the latness, esp. considering the field size. We were waiting b/c the stats were on a teamates pc who was hard to get a hold of. Also, we were missing one stat sheet, which we did not find. Anyways, here are the results.
