How would the FBR Look???

Gopher -

I know the top twenty have to play it out but....do you happen to know what the FBR would look like now???

No biggie if your don't have the data. Just wondering how it looks with additional data.

I haven't added any additional result to the '02 database since before QT.

With the '01's there was interest in FBR through the fall, mainly because of the unbalanced D1 fall schedule in the 20 team D1 supergroup. However, interest waned significantly once the Spring rolled around. The SoS in D1 starts to balance out and the league standings and State Cup results become the only things that matter.

If you '02 parents bug me enough, I'll will probably put together a new '02 FBR, but like I did with the '01's, I will wipe the database clean and will start from scratch beginning with the first week of LHGCL league play. That means I won't have anything that is even reasonably accurate until around the beginning of Oct.

My primary focus will be on getting the '03 and '04 FBR's in good shape. Then, if I have time, I'll move on to the '02's and/or '05's.

However, squeaky wheel will always get the grease. That's why I came out with an '04 FBR before and '03 FBR last year.

No worries! The 02's seem much less interested in this whole process in general (probably a good thing for the DD).

I have heard this mentioned more than once. Can someone explainwWhat is the state tournament and why is it important?

The end of the year you will have league champion and a state tournament champion.

The state tournament does not have as much value now, but will eventually provide us with a region III representative for your age division and eventual chance at a national championship.

Although, the best teams meet in the state tournament at the end of the year for revenge, redemption, and bragging rights to finish the season.

How do teams qualfiy for the State cup? Is it by invitation? Or do you have to finish in the top 10 in Lake Highlands?

It is not the top 10 in LHGCL. In the 01s last year 9 of the top 10 played in cup, but also a few from out of town and a couple from the lower brackets.

It's open registration. Who ever thinks they have a chance.
