RESULTS: Speedway Shootout (10/21/06) @ Robinson HS(NC)

Post by DrakeRQB »

Not everything will fit in the subject line, but I did the best I could.

Robinson High School in Concord, N.C. will host the first Speedway Shootout on Saturday, October 21st. This will be a modified four-quarter format:

1st quarter: lightning round - negs for incorrect answers
2nd quarter: team-directed questions
3rd quarter: team worksheet
4th quarter: tossup round

Tentatively, registration will be $55 for the first team and $50 for additional teams with discounts for buzzers and moderators (call or email for details). Additionally, any teams that attend the Speedway Shootout will receive a registration discount for our February tournament, the Robinson Invitational.

Our website is http://www.robinsonquizbowl.com, and we'll have more information on this up soon. If you think you may be interested in attending, please email me using the contact link on the website.

Edit - With the new guidelines, everything fits now. ~PLS~

Updated field (10/4):

Cave Spring (VA) x2
Central Cabarrus x2
Harnett Central
Northwest Cabarrus x2
Northwood (maybe x2)
Providence Day x2
Raleigh Charter x3 or x4
St. Mary's
Sun Valley x2
Weddington (maybe x2)

We're right at the cap right now but if I hear from a sufficient number of teams in the next few days I'm going to raise the cap from 18 to 24 and add another six-team pool.

Harnett Central - 1
Northwest Cabarrus - 2
Providence Day - 2
Raleigh Charter - 4

I'm now capping at 24 teams, so I need two more to make four pools of six.

I added Aiken and MLWGSGIS yesterday, but I had one school drop from two teams to one. I can still take one more - email me from the link on our website if you're interested.

Aaaaahhhh, I spoke too soon! We had a team withdraw, and I really really need a 24th team to fill out the field. If you can help me out with that, please email me asap at sadrake at gmail dot com.

OK, I admit this'll be an unusual title change, but hopefully every little bit will help. Good luck finding that 24th, Alex.

Maggie Walker dropped, but Chattahoochee added. We're in good shape and the field is once again closed.
