It is probably a pure business decision by Greenville. CESA brings in at least ~$1.5M of revenue average to the city in hotels and food for each of their 3 tournaments per year and the championship field is most likely in preparation for the 2012 Regional championships that are coming. The argument could be made that CESA will help Greenville more than pay for the improvements over the coming few years.

Just a thought...
