Damn.... don't think I can't make it since I will be in NorCal a week earlier for October break (oct 17-22) :(

Hope the tournament goes well.  I will pass this on to my team and some of the new local teams.

Best regards,

Hey John,
That's great news!

Wanted to check -- will we be using the Ektelon Classic (black) ball
at the tournaments this year?
I believe the CSRA just switched, and that is now their official ball
-- wasn't sure if we've been
getting balls through them, or directly from mfg to the conference.
