Well assuming their league doesn't use NAQT, and assuming they came in fourth as a result of a ppb tiebreaker (which I believe is the case?), does NAQT still reserve a berth for the highest-finishing team who has not already qualified?

Even if they didn't win their league on NAQT questions, they should still get the berth as the highest finisher at an NAQT State event that hadn't already qualified. I KNOW that OPRF, Auburn, and Carbondale had all qualified via Kickoff. So, congratulations to Stevenson on qualifying!

EDIT: Yes, Dan. Unless I totally dreamed my exchange with Jeff Hoppes, then yes.

Stevenson has qualified (and in fact registered for HSNCT this morning).

Playoffs stats are reposted. Donald says these are complete. If it turns out they're not, tell us both.
