Rose Hill Varsity Football

[Ram]

After looking over the new football alignment for 2009-2010, I have noticed that Rose Hill is not listed in the 1A Class and are not listed as a non-participating school. Has Rose Hill dropped the process of starting a varsity football program, or is there some misunderstanding in the listing. If Rose Hill did not apply for the 2009 season, they will not be able to form a varsity football program until 2011.

 

Does anyone have any information about Rose Hill's Varsity Football program?

I spoke with the coach this morning, and I wonder if it's simply an oversight.

That is kind of what I thought. But, if they had applied, I would think they would have been in District 1-5, with the only other 1A teams in the area, instead Berea has been added which makes a six team distinct, so I would not think they would be added to that district, to make a seven team district. And, the realignment will not be re-done until 2011.

 

It looks like, to me, if they would have applied that Berea would have been in another district to leave room for Rose Hill in D1-5.

 

Otherwise they would have to play in D1-7 which will cause a lot of travel.

I thought that they was only going to play a J.V. schedule this year.

This year is 08. We're talking about the 09/10 seasons.

I thought that was the plan, JV in '08, but this realignment is for '09-'10, so if they did not apply for a varsity team for '09-'10, then they can not have a team until realignment in 2011. At least that is the way I understand it.

Sounds like someone really dropped the ball if that's the case. My guess is that it's not just an omission mistake by the KHSAA.

My mistake I should have said it better.

Just received an email that is correspondence with RH and the KHSAA. It was a simple omission by the KHSAA. RH is in fact participating in the 09/10 season and there will be an amendment out to participating schools soon.:thumb:

Which district will they be in?

Which district will they be in?

I suppose that when the new letter goes out, that will be the answer. I have no clue. I'm glad that it was just an oversight.

[The Red Rambler]

It would only make sense for Rose Hill to be in 1-5. Maybe they will move Berea to 1-6?

That was Ram's thoughts as well.

I can't answer that one 100% but there is something in the works to use KCU's field as a home field. That would be a terrific venue and garner alot of community support I think.
