I actually know where 2 of those gyms used for that tournament are located at. I was even at one during the first day/afternoon of play. (What can I say, I know people HA) I believe whoever assigns NCAA W for Big 10 etc, used that as one of their evaluating camps but is no longer affiliated with that event, which might explain some of the officiating cluster.
While I think the 10k entree fee might be a bit high, I wouldnt be suprised if it was between 5k - 7500. You also forgot to add in the 'fee" the college coaches pay to get into the event which, if memory serves was $300. Unless the officiating was horrendous, I am not sure how much those coaches care, they just want to see and be seen. Now the coaches with AAU might care!!
