I think the argument on the parochial schools is they could recruit. They say it wasn’t done but we know it may have (did) happen.
same with schools on reservations where students just seemed to play where there were going to be good teams,
IMHO, tell me where I’m wrong.
as long as the lower 2 classes can still play each other it should be fine, otherwise the travel could be a nightmare.
to me a school night should have no travel more than 75 minutes. Have more Saturday afternoon games and girls and boys double headers , getting kids home after midnight is crazy.
