In a very unimportant tangent, I'd like to just point out that there are two misspelled names in the Mizzou rosters:
- My name is Dz-UR-ick, not IN like is listed.
- Also, Eric's last name is Briesacher, not Briesawher.

University of Tulsa has expressed interest in attending. I do not know at this point whether one Mr. Grant Gates is at all involved or even aware of this. This brings our total up to teams from 11 schools. Impressive, considering some regions have as few as two or three teams registered at this point.
