As a parent on Dune I was there and saw those express parents losing their minds. I'm surprised they didn't pull their sons and leave the tournament they were that upset. With 40 something on the roster, someone has to play with the less skilled players
They were in the wrong bracket. The team knew who they were playing and they all still showed up and played in a "B bracket". So yeah, they should have pulled their kids, but they should have done it before the tournament.
