It was a wild Regionals weekend as Cinderellas danced their way to Nationals at tournaments around the country. We picked out some of the best tweets that helped tell the story of an impossible-to-predict but incredibly fun weekend.

Michigan qualified for Nationals and then got down to the real competition.

Sin The Fields lost their Pick ‘Em Challenge with Deep Look and will have to eat an extremely spicy chile pepper live on the air at Nationals.
I know that blowing these games must be deveststing for the seniors on Cal Poly SLO and Colorado, but at least they don't have to eat a fucking death pepper #fuck #therealvictims

William & Mary thought they had made Nationals. But not quite.
Wait a second. TD just said he blew the cap too early. Game is resuming to 12-8. We’ll play for 10 more minutes it sounds like. This is awkward

But it was all worth it.
Everyone on our team right now pic.twitter.com/W28pvufecV

Marquette was holding downwind with a lead over Minnesota in an elimination game at NC Regionals but coughed up a pair of late breaks.
No ones going to talk about it. It's not going to be posted on Ultiworld or Reddit threads. But we know that we were one upwind break away from stoping the #4 team in the country from going to Nationals. #TheWaatchIsForever -Sr Captain

Southwest Regionals was a tad windy.
We're breaking their zone just like the wind is breaking these easy-ups. 10-5 pic.twitter.com/XrzaP4XdMb

Every year the new faces remind you that everybody is hungry, to never take it for granted.

And it shows that consistency at this level for this long is difficult to sustain. I’m proud of this program and I’m proud of this team. @hodaglove
