HS 1444 (2 mid-event section changes), JH - 1138 (4 mid-event section changes), AGN - 448 (no mid-event section changes)

Almost a lock to exceed last year’s elementary total. That would make all three spring scholastics (combined) bigger than last year - and last year was good.

We’ve slipped over last year’s totals. We’ll have some cancellations and no-shows, but we will also have more registrations on-line through 5/6 as well as onsite registrations. Won’t surprise me if we hit 2300 but I doubt we get to 2400.

2215 as of 5 PM CDT on 5/3. (four away from matching last year’s number)
2226 as of 6:30 AM CDT on 5/4. (25 per day needed to double the JH) (I’m wondering if adding the friends and family tournament will get the numbers to 2400 / requiring 1200 boards and sets)
2246 as of 9:30 PM CDT on 5/4.
Entry fee goes up after 5/4.

Total unique IDs that actually showed up for the Elementary is about 2250.

There are 2277 separate entry lines for players that played at least one game, but there are a LOT of section changes so I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that the number of unique IDs was a little short of 2250.
There were 65 in the Friends and Family side event.

Final total was 2260 (17 mid-event section changes). Six sections were won by a sole 7-0. Two sections were won by a sole 6.5-0.5. One section had multiple co-champions at 6-1.
