LOS ANGELES – Office of the Director of Officiating (and Records): The University of Kentucky Dodgeball Club will play host for Nationals 2017 in Lexington, Kentucky. They have two potential weekends available, of April 1st or April 8th.

This was a preferential election. Each Member Team submitted a ballot ranking the candidates by preference.

An election note, there was a tiebreaker between VCU and JMU in the first round since they had the same total of first preferences in the election. The tiebreaker went to the Candidate with more second preferences: VCU with 11 over JMU with 3.

      1. It’s no skin off my back really, but I was hoping to be able to visit and maybe play in the alumni game. Not sure I’ll be able to afford Baltimore to Lexington though.

  1. Thanks Wes. At least some people want positive change in the league instead of the status quo.
