Last year NAQT initially invited 24 teams from four-year schools and
8 teams from two-year schools. Because there was a large statistical
gap between those eight teams and the next several two-year teams,
NAQT reallocated bids (when community colleges declined), to the four-
year field resulting in the 26/6 split.
Eight of the initial bids have gone to two-year schools this year.
