Re: Nationals Bids Thread for the 2015-2016 Season

Looks like Helias B and St. Pius X got into HSNCT with their bids earned last Saturday just before the field filled! Of course, there will likely be tons of drops and I wouldn't be surprised if there are one or more field expansions, so plenty of time to get on the waitlist and eventually get a spot.
