It will be hard to match last year's NAFA national tourney where we won the whole damn thing. First of all, we haven't been playing nearly as well as we did last year. More importantly, this is a much higher quality tourney. The comparison is like the difference between A and AAA baseball I would think.
40 teams qualified for the ISC II tourney. They have the top 30 of these teams ranked (we are not in that group). The format is 8 5-team round robin pools. The top 3 teams from each pool advance to a 24 team single elimination bracket with all the 1 seeds getting byes. Our bracket has the 8th, 9th, 15th, and 25th ranked teams.
Our first game was against the 8th seed and we lost 6-1. Most likely we will need to win 2 of the last 3 games to advance. I would consider this a successful tourney if we can. I will keep you updated. Our next game is tomorrow at 12:30.
