So I was inspired a bit to come up with a geographic layout based on perceived activity to create some regions. While of course some states could field a team solo, the likelihood of most is not. So, with an idea to create a manageable tournament I created 10 regions. I have no idea what it coming or how this works, but I was bored so sue me.
You have the "Northeast" region as the DC/Maryland/Virginia area? One response to that:
Switch the names of the Atlantic and the Northeast and now we're talking. I'd personally do 8 regions instead of 10 for easy bracketing purposes, but I'm not as skilled at drawing on a map as you are.
