@Mck71 ... Yeap ... Agreed. That is where I was wrong.

Moved to Major last year? Yes, SSUSA and ISSA. I didn't know if it was based on Vegas where we finished 10th (made it to Sunday but didn't have enough players left to play). I A.S.S.U.M.E.D it was just an organizational thing to populate the M and M+ divisions. We moved from AAA to M. And a lot of teams moved from M to M+.

I am glad I am wrong. I have always appreciated the Swarm coach and players. Their talent, integrity, and sportsmanship have never been question.

I am guilty of talking without the correct information.

I need to make a correction to my earlier comment.

Montgomery Swarm was not, and never has been a Major Plus team in SSUSA. I ask the Swarm and SSUSA to please accept my apologies for my incorrect comment.

I'm not sure who at SSUSA HQ made the decision to move Montgomery Swarm DOWN to Major from Major Plus but that was shown to be a very unwise decision.

Swarm came in and cleaned up on the two actual major teams: Darrell Harris and DT Express. These two teams have worked hard all year to STEP UP to the Major division after being elevated from AAA this year. And suddenly, here at the end of the season, just before Vegas, viola, Swarm is allowed to drop down???

Swarm was told to step up to major plus. For SSUSA and ISSA. I guess winning every tournament has been a little slow coming for them in M+. Been there done that. Take on your competitors vs making appeals to find easier competition!

Instead, they were allowed to STEP DOWN in SSUSA against the voices in Southern Region. ISSA didn't let them step down. That should be food for thought.

Too late for this tournament. But you need to reverse this decision and listen to your officials in the southern division!
