There is a small round-robin format tournament going on this weekend in Las Vegas, which was put together by a guy who lives out of state.  The tournament attracted six teams, and is a good late-season preparatory tournament for both the USQRA and Canadian Championships which will be held within the next two months.

There are three teams from Canada, and three teams from our neighbours down south.  The pre-tournament ranking looked like this:

1 - Phoenix Heat
2 - San Diego Bushwhackers
3 - Canada Ice
4 - British Columbia Bandits (their development squad)
5 - Prairie Dawgs
6 - Corona (pretty much Plan B from San Diego)

The rosters are incomplete, but I expect to have more info on them later today:
