Sucks that they put this kickass ONU tournament the first weekend of the semester.

I'm somewhat surprised that some teams got 3 groups in considering there is a wait list. You would think they would just limit everyone to 2 teams.

We were there last year and placed in the top 5.  This year the field is so much more competitive, we're going to be fighting to break into the top 10.

Given how much different and better the field is from last year, I don't think there's any comparison that can be made <sarcasm> aside from the following :  There will be mock courtrooms, mock trial teams, and judges.  There will be places and awards.</sarcasm> 

The only thing I remember worth noting is that our judges were coaches of other teams in all but one round.

We were there last year also. I am sure you can tell what team I am from and it was a pretty well run tournament. The field is a bit larger and like the post before me, the field is a stronger overall than last year. I think that you will enjoy this tournament, it is in a small city, and it is just easier to maneuver around. Just remember it is still an invitational and you need to enjoy yourselves, as well as get better at the same time. As for the judges, our team had all law students except for one round when we had a coach and an attorney. See you there.
"Its not an upset if you knew that you were the better team all along.
