Re: Illinois '14-'15
Well, if the Masonic meet mirrors the IHSA's three tiered system, it would look something like this: 1. Schools with enrollments of 0-728.00 will be Class 1A 2. Schools with enrollments of 728.01-1657.00 will be Class 2A 3. Schools with enrollments of 1657.01 and-above will be Class 3A Keep in mind,...

After winning the initial playoff bracket, including an especially tight match versus Springfield, Bloomington and SHS faced off again in an advantaged final. SHS took the first m...

A huge thanks goes out to the moderators Noah, Brad, Eric, Siva, Dan, Brian, Andrew, and Mr. Aydt. Thanks, too, go out to Cassie, Angelina, an...

Not because he is from EPG (yeah central IL), but more because he sounds absolutely dangerous(-ly awesome). Blade? Obviously, since he was at the meet, he must be a Daywalker. This name rivals t...

Noah: Bloomington (IL) (It's next to Normal, IL) would love to host a mirror of this year's IMSAnity set. By far and away, this has always been one of the best sets we have seen in competition. Not only has this set been challenging, which has, in turn, made us a better team come playoff time, it's ...

Re: Illinois '13-'14
I echo much of what has been said above. IMSA not only has Anton, the best player in the state IMO, but a strong group of supporting players around him as well, from Siva, Waleed and Dan (I use supporting loosely, as all of those players are fantastic in his own right). One top of that, they had a f...

Re: ATROPHY at Northern Illinois University (20 April 2013)
Bloomington is interested in "cleansing our palate's" from the IHSA questions. We aim to bring 2, maybe 3 teams, as many as we can really. I'll keep ya posted.
I'd be able to help staff as well and can bring my own laptop.
See you in April,

I actually think they might be more effective in creating Regional assignments, despite lacking in knowledge of the state or even SB itself.

These assignments are created in a giant aquarium in Bloomington, in a secret room hidden far beneath the IHSA's office building. When creating Regional assignments, there are balls in the tank wi...

Looking forward to it.
