Not as many compelling matchups in pool play as we might have hoped for, as Bored MD Dad points out. Madlax vs Laxachussetts is intriguing, and the Team 91/Express North could be a tell.... with only a bracket of 4 (3 pools), gotta think it’s Hawks, Madlax, and 91 with a wild card 4th. Thunder is a new entrant in the 28’s, they could make some noise.

Mad Dog West Elite is better than the bottom tier in Bored Dad’s rankings. Big and physical, similar to BBL and NL.
