I won't be looking forward to any summer tournaments after a 10-month long league seasonLooking forward to the summer tourneys to see teams from the different leagues battling it out.

SW conference schedule is brutal, wished they would shorten it....I won't be looking forward to any summer tournaments after a 10-month long league season
A bit tough to predict quarterfinalists at this point with wildcards. I would venture to say that no teams from group D, E and J make it that far. There will be some tough wildcards matched up with groups A - E coming out of groups F, G, I and K.

Currently you can pick at least some of the Finalists for VA. Based on the brackets, this is what I predict from the brackets that don't include 2nd place games. Feel free to post your predictions-
Group F vs Group K
Slammer Koge VS San Juan - Koge moves forward to Nationals (Update - San Juan needs a big win and some help to move on! May still land Wild Card Spot though)
Group G vs Group J
SUSA VS SLSG - SUSA moves forward to Nationals (Update - matchup is looking highly likely)
Group H vs Group I
PDA Blue VS Blues - PDA moves forward to Nationals (Update - matchup is looking highly likely)
I will do it for you Mars. I predict Beach wins!Group C vs 2nd Place #3
Beach VS Real Colorado - Too tough too predict!!!
Mars please break it down by conference with the teams advancing. I saw multiple teams, biggest disappointments had to be Legends and FC Dallas. FC Dallas had zero points! Teams have caught up with Solar. Solar could still win the championship but margin of error is much smaller. Blues was strong against DKSC had some bad luck. Koge completely thrashed Loudon. Matchfit has good fitness and a couple nice players; too bad Surf and Blues have to play in sweet 16. SW conference Sonoran teams (blues, Koge, Surf)strength of league schedule was off the charts and it showed versus the performance Mojave teams not advancingSome upsets today including Solar losing to Real Colorado. Couple games left. Looks like what we thought before Nationals is true. SoCal putting multiple teams through to first round, same with North Atlantic and Texas. More later.

Slammers Koge losing to Minnesota Thunder is easily the biggest upset in round of 16.I think I missed SLSG and one other.
But as expected, SoCal, Mid Atlantic, and Texas have the strongest teams. PDA and DKSC should be an amazing game. I think Koge is the favorite at this point. If PDA can make it past DKSC, they also have a great chance. As for Solar, everyone knows they are now beatable. Lastly, SUSA should not be written off along with Real Colorado and SD Surf.
No LV Surf players on SD.I don’t think MFA has a chance against PDA. MFA had the easiest road through division and QF play. PDA had to beat both Eclipse Select and DKSC but yeah, a lot of bad blood between those two teams.
I wonder if SD Surf has some of the LV Surf playing?
I definitely agree MF had the easiest path to Nationals. Now lets see how this backyard brawl (between parents..ha ha) turns out between MF and PDA. The NJ forum should be a must read next week...The F bombs will be dropping....LOL...I don’t think MFA has a chance against PDA. MFA had the easiest road through division and QF play.
