"In the meantime, these results are what I
remember after arriving back in Gainesville at 5:30 this
morning after a marathon tournament (9AM-10:30PM) and a
subsequent 7 hour car ride."
Marathon is absolutely
correct - 17 rounds is _entirely_ too long for a one day
tournament. I know it was good experience for our younger
guys, but after nearly 12 hours of QB, they were pretty
dead. Perhaps, for future regionals, some sort of
bracketing system could be employed...17 rounds is just a
little too much for one day.
