Also, to drive from Stanford to SFTC, you take 280, and would have very little crawling street traffic.

2nd_serve BINGO. If you didn't know before Form may dislike Stanford more than UCI.

At least Form will step foot at UCI but I don't know if Form will ever step foot at Stanford again.

Stanford had not arranged the promised indoor courts, they were an hour away, and I know folks that watched matches at 1am after crawling through rainy SF traffic.

Oh, and somehow Stanford hospitality was (nor is it ever) what they promised the other athletes.

BUT, when they won after being # 2 seeds, they ran inside and then all came out wearing NO RESPECT Nike tshirts... just to give a finger to the NCAA.

Stanford is .................................................. ....

Is this true? So if Stanford wins again at Athens, will they do the same?

it seems top 16 is almost decided, pointwise..? (but there's conference tourney I guess?)

I guess this is why UT 'jumped'

4/15/2012 #22 Texas Tech University Win 4-2
4/14/2012 #12 Baylor University Win 4-3

Like Pac 12, Big 12 also might witness the toppling of the 'regime'

Can Sam make the cut? No more matches until the NCAA..

So why such big pt difference between UF and STAN, when BOTH didn't play the Team Indoors?

1 79.53 UCLA 1
2 78.01 University of Florida 3
3 73.28 Duke University 2
4 72.54 University of Southern California 4
5 64.85 Stanford 5

Moreover STAN actually beat UF, no?

Could it be...UF was more 'adventurous' in their schedule?

Maybe ACC teams being near SEC teams helps
