It is my understanding that the Independent Tourney, set for March 6-7 in Fairbanks will be run as it was last year, i.e., pairings will be determined by the KBYR Independents poll with 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3. As far as I know, the participants for this year's tourney have yet to be determined... by that I mean, which teams WILL participate, regardless of where they're ranked in the poll. Tim McDiffett
