My youngest is now 30 years old.

1st game - Dallas
2nd game - team from Mississippi
3rd game - host team from Greensboro

I'm guessing the game Sunday night against Greensboro will decide the 2 quarterfinal qualifiers but we shall see.

Link if so inclined to follow. Thanks for the info! We are definitely looking forward to the tourney and hopes of a good showing!

... soak it in. One can never be sure of getting back. You are fortunate to not have to deal with extreme travel. The back to back years my younger son went (U14 and U15) we had to travel from Seattle to New Mexico and Utah, respectively.
