5fouls Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Just now, rico said: Well they re-classified schools...when are the new sectionals going to be announced? My understanding is that the sectionals will be announced in late April or early May. The meeting to decide is the last week of April, so it depends on how quickly they can get an announcement put together, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Brown will make that sectional ticket a hard one to get, especially his senior year if he is closing in on Damon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Billingsley may know. We hosted for several years in a 1A and the main criteria were: Gym capacity, locker room availability, if possible a central location to the participants but this is the least important I believe. Past tournament host evaluations come into play. At South Decatur Bobby Cox loved everything about our sectional and he visited many times. We lost the host when South moved up to 2A, so as a reward we received the 2A girls sectional . Overall that is some of the things that come into play.

btownqb Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Football needs to go to neutral sites in the regional and semi state. There's no reason with the amount of schools with turf that we can't have neutral sites in that sport, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our current gym just doesn't have the character that place did. I don't really know where it sat, directional wise. But it just had that smell of basketball. Circa '81-'84. It was a nice gym and my Wildcats always enjoyed playing there when we would kick some Tiger butt!!!!! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are definitely basketball games where the mercy rule would be a good thing as well. I'm just excited to see the shot clock gaining momentum. I read an article that predicted Indiana would have one within five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
