Shout out to M.I.T.

MIT finished in 2nd Place Overall this year...for the third straight season...this coming off a 5th Place Overall Bridge in 2011.  That is a TREMENDOUS run of success and MIT is clearly knocking on the door of a NSSBC Championship, which would be the first in the New England Regional's history.

Keep bringin' it Engineers!
