My hands are shaking as my fingers hover over the subject line of my new email.
Even though they sent this message a couple of hours after the first half of qualification matches were over, I shouldn't have waited a week to open this.
Taking a deep breath, I click on the email.
SUBJECT: WESTERN REGIONAL-TOP 10 RANKINGS
Hello, teams! Casey here! After thirty-seven out of seventy-four matches, we at Wayfinder HQ added all the points teams have contributed to their alliance in each match and have the top ten mid-way rankings out of the forty-four registered teams listed below:
BetaShock - 151 pts
Team Echo - 141 pts
The Nighthawks - 136 pts
SigmaSquadron - 127 pts
Team Tidal - 124 pts
Roboknights - 119 pts
The Strikers - 117 pts
Atlas Runners - 115 pts
Team Phoenix - 110 pts

I look forward to seeing the rest of the qualification matches in determining the seven that'll represent the west coast. Good luck to all and remember to have fun!
All the best,
