The Washington University Academic Team is excited to announce the seventeenth annual WUHSAC, to be held at Washington University in St. Louis on Saturday, February 14th, 2015. This is as in the previous two years, President's Day Weekend, which (weather permitting) is an ideal way to use the holiday by seeing our campus and the city of St. Louis!
The set is once again a mirror of Yale's BHSAT event. We are looking forward to a tournament that will (hopefully) be bigger and better than ever!
WUHSAC's general rules will be similar to previous years with two major exceptions.
Rules
- 20 tossups and bonuses per game
- no computational math
- no negs
- 20 point powers
- NO bouncebacks on bonuses. This is a one-year change done in the interest of the tournament running in a more timely fashion. After the event, I intend to forward all coaches a survey as to making this a permanent change.
Format
- 36-team field with the possibility that this might expand
- Bracketed round robin prelims
- Re-bracketed round robin playoffs
- four-team superplayoffs and final if needed
