Good luck with that. There was a plan brought to Tackett and he was quick to turn it away.

I think 4 classes was too many. Either do 2 or 3.

I think three fits very well in baseball, basketball, volleyball.

Dont they have an all A state tournament like they do basketball?

The more athletes are required for a sport, the more the need for classification IMO.

Yes. But when 10 of your schools have 1,000 kids in it, something needs to change. A small school in a good year is still almost never good enough to beat a big school in a bad year.

It's hard to make a decision based one years enrollment numbers. I'd need to see several years worth of enrollment numbers to see how this trend is going.

OK so there is two tournaments what is the issue?

Has nothing to do with enrollment numbers. KHSAA doesnt want to change the structure of the post season tournaments, which they would have to do. It means more work for them.

This. Most of the sports (baseball, softball, soccer, track, FOOTBALL, etc.) make sense. Not so for basketball, volleyball, golf. And I never did understand why cross-country is classified.

Hazard(enrollment 343) is in the semis.

I meant it's hard for me to make an informed decision, just looking at one seasons numbers.

Not really sure where to post this, but apparently a Bowling Green journalist, Paul Gray collapsed on the field last night and later passed away. How awful.
