Amen. While it's true that a lot of the big hot-shoes will be at the classic, I think that leaves a rather large contingent of (NOT) "novices" at the other tourneys this weekend.
Quite a few people avoid the "drafty ole mule barn" for a variety of reasons. We have several Varsity H.S. kids that are worn down, and wanted a more relaxed weekend (and a shorter drive) prior to starting Subs; so they are going to Parsons. I doubt they would be classified "novices".
