By making the Vanderbilt SemiFinal, the Nickell team earned enough Positioning Points for a bye to the Open USBC Quarterfinal. Although of course the Nickell team is hoping to win two more matches, that will not change their USBC bye position - they cannot gain enough Positioning Points for a SemiFinal bye. Congratulations and Good Luck!
