Official Numbers for Day 1b

Tournament director Jack Effel just announced the official registration count for Day 1b. It is a very surprising 1,158. Perhaps scheduling one of the Day 1s for the 4th of July wasn't the best idea.

Combined with the 1,297 from yesterday, that puts the field at 2,455 so far. We expect that Day 1c and Day 1d will have far larger fields.
