You have to play with the hand you are dealt. The Hattabaugh injury would not have made as big of a difference as you think. Let's say Hattabaugh would have won the bracket. Then the VC kid, who Hattabaugh beat out in the "get in" round, would have qualified, possibly taking 3rd. So Andale would have only gained the difference between 1st and 3rd place points. Noone is going to run away from Valley Center. VC had some matches that they lost that could have very easily gone the other way. The 4A state team race should be a doozy with Andale, VC, CC, and Abilene. Colby has some possible finalists as well as some backside help.
