The fourth-round begins!

By Steve England, ESVN - As we begin the forth-round I'm pleased to report that only one match is yet unresolved from the third.  The OC/TB battle was postponed due to injury, but I'm hopeful Nate has had time to recover, and their much anticipated match will be completed soon.   Looking forward to the fourth-round, we enter the semifinals for most brackets.  Several bye placements give automatic victories to: BY, JT, DR, DNR, and the loser of OC/TB.  The southeast bracket presents a unique situation.  Again, the placement of byes throughout the bracket permits the victor of KI/ZP to become the Southeast Champion.  Conceivably, if one of these individuals forfeit - The other becomes a regional champion without ever winning a match!  An interesting dilemma... one that perhaps needs to be corrected for next year's tournament.

For those of you who do not have a bye this round - keep in mind that you're only one victory away from playing for a regional title, and getting your name on the Regional Champion's Trophy!
