A Note on Breaks:

Because of the large size of fields this year, we have expanded the Quarterfinals field for OI and DI in order to ensure a fair and reasonable break.  Breaks for each event are based on prelims ranks with the lowest preliminary ranking dropped.  The exact number of students breaking to Quarterfinals in each event is based the most reasonable clean break.  Breaks into Semifinals and Finals and Final rankings will be determined by cumulative rank totals with the lowest preliminary rank dropped.

As a reminder, all judges who are in the Quarterfinals pools are obligated to be in the judges’ lounge at 8:30 AM, even if your team drops tonight.  All missing judges will be fined, and ballots for schools will not be released until all fines are paid.

Congratulations to all advancing students.
