We are closing in on two weeks from the event and are hoping to fill out the field, but I haven't heard from many of our close competitors. Let me know, if you plan on coming!

We are now making final arrangements for staffing for this event. If you plan to join us, please let us know ASAP. Teams that have already signed up should expect an e-mail early next week with more details and an invoice. Any changes for teams already signed up, please let us know. We are looking forward to seeing you on the 9th!

WHIP has concluded and we would like to thank all the teams that attended as well as to thank the Glasgow, KY group that created the Scottie set. It was a well-written set that was fun to play. Lexington dominated the event, going 10-0 and defeated Plymouth (NH) A in the finals match by a score of 465-245. This is a team that no doubt will be a contender for the HSNCT National Championship this spring. Plymouth A and AMSA A also went 8-2 on the day, capping off solid days for both teams. Rhys Harris (Plymouth), Charles Yang (Lexington), David Arena (Lexington), and Christopher Walsh (AMSA) finished first-fourth respectively in individual scoring. Stats can be found here:
