AWWHHHHHH....Practice today was great! my liitle Div. 1 held 228lbs.(we ran out of weights before it could crush)...but I think this was a fluke...not that I dont beleive in my Omers...How hard is it re-create a structure and know for sure it will hold a comparable amount? I question this becasue they ahve crushed over 30 structures and only the past two weeks their wieghts went from 0-35lbs to 90 -110lbs then today wham!! 228. They are going on what they think is a great solution and a little in between the lines. If there way of thinking is correct then hopfully they will do well at regionals...if they have to go with back up structure they are only looking at leass than 100lbs. THanks NEw Coach In MIchigan
