I don't understand why you think it is strange for "only 3" all A schools to make it to the Region--Sounds like you think schools with less than 250 students in grades 9-12 should have a better team that schools with 600+ enrollment. Wish that was true--but only in "Elite Situations" will that occur--i.e, having several GREAT transfers that are ruled eligible.
Great---IMO we should keep our own officials--trading get's you just what some said earlier---and yes it "should" be up to the KIDS--but "NO" it is not always that way--unfortunately. Been there--experienced it!!
Great Game!!! Congrats to the Engineers and the Owls--too bad someone had to loose. The Owls saved their BEST game of the season for the end. :dancingpa
