:confused: Why is that? I mean why will the Mountain Classic have a hard time getting teams from the 15th? I understand some of the top teams are playing tournaments in other places, out of state, etc....., but surely there is some team from the 15th they can get each year --- isn't there?

I am sure they can get a team or even two from the 15th each year if they want. it might not be one of the top 2 or 3 teams. If they want to take the 9th or so to show up and get blown out by a top team from a different region, then they can, and they most likely will to try to keep it a balanced tourney in their viewing area.
