Actually the classes are listed as A AA AAA AAAA AAAAA AAAAAA But it is much easier to just say 1A 2A etc.......Of course the old way was just A AA AAA AAAA
I think we are looking at this as more of a better seed from one district losing to the lower seed in the other district. Like a 4 beating a 1 or a 3 beating a 2.
All Tell I understand that and in fact I would venture to guess Simon is better than perhaps 10-12 of the teams that make the playoffs. Unfortunately the lot you are given as the "worst team" in this district is to get conceivably year in and year out one of the top teams in the state if not Trinity then St. X.
Bracken will not beat Bellevue.........Campbell County made your list????? They are perhaps the only one seed that is viewed by many as being weaker than the other playoff bound teams in the same district.
Yeah you know if it were my team (and it very well could be many years) I think finishing 5th you should just end the season......Why is the KHSAA doing this? Just give seed 1 a bye.
Clyde thanks for providing the info....It is really a fascinating system to determine the playoff teams. Also interesting to see where teams beaten or having beat Ky. schools wind up. Elder I assume was not close to making playoffs? Also interesting that as bad as LaSalle beat CovCath they miss the playoffs by that miniscule amount!
And yes had to respond to the "old school " reference as Vida Blue was one of my all time favorite pitchers..............Same two cities too Oakland/Cincinnati :notworthy:
This is one of those situations that places like Elder rise up and play that "one big game." Highlands is one that I would think they are looking at as the "easier" portion of their schedule. I still think Birds win but I will not be suprised if the Panthers pull one out.
Well lets qualify Smith was from the Grove but mom is the athletic secretary at Highland so that would not be unusual for a student to go with a parent, especially when he is that great of a football player. There are a couple kids in Campbell County that do the same.
