Because it's the only West Coast Regional, and we always seem to get sent as far away as possible when we do not host. 2022 at USM was an anomaly.

[quote]LSU may be a 3 seed, but I'd take a 3 seed in the Indiana St regional versus a 2 seed at UNC.[/quote]
Wouldn't we get sent to furthest away regional possible as is tradition when we don't host?
That would send us out to Corvallis....

Got 3 quotes ranging from $2,200 to $2,400. Went with the $2,400 since I had used guy in past and trusted him.
Cost included tree removal, hauling ...

Granted, that was a lifetime ago, and would probably do much better in current times....
