Hey everyone,
I know it's not the most well-attended or popular comp, but USA HS Nationals is coming up on the 23-25 in Disneyland. Should be interesting for a few reasons:
1. It's been moved up about a month earlier than last year. Meaning teams that compete at both UCA and USA don't have the full six weeks they used to get to improve themselves for their last chance to win a national title (and some teams NEED those six weeks).
2. New scoresheets = new shakeups, probably.
3. Massive schedule reorganizations due to the new CA CIA rules. So CA-based teams that have not experienced a UCA Nationals (and lots of them haven't because it's too far) are going to have a much different experience if they final because they will be required to perform twice in a day, not twice in a weekend. Might not change anything, but it might be too much stress for unaccustomed teams to handle.
Anyone going? So far the roster includes your usual UCA heavyweights Eldo, Losal, Oak Ridge, etc. Should be interesting.
