CUSC is still alive and well; we have merged with SAPP as of 8/14. Apparently St. Andrews made the decision that we did not need a DOC position for this year, but Andy Grist is now the club VP, still does coaching and skills training, and is still a valuable part of the club. The merger has so far been pretty well seamless from a coach's perspective; our day-to-day operations really haven't changed, and if anything we can give players even more bang for their buck.
Can't shed any light on MPSC...I don't know anything about the goings-on across the bridge.
