Most of the western school don't like the "travel" to Wichita for State track, how the heck do you think it would go over if you told Ulysses, Liberal, Goodland or St. Francis "Congrats on making it to state, it'll be 300+ miles away in KC!"

And for those that need to know, I graduated from Colby, so I know what the drive is like from "all the way out there" to "the big cities". Still make the trip twice a year to get with family...

Great idea, having the KS State Tourny in MO 400+ miles from our western friends. I would vote for it.

Just curious. How can Bishop Miege host a 5a regional tourney but were playing in the 4a football playoffs just a couple of months ago? I know schools switch classes, but in the middle of the year? can someone please clarify.

Good question. Rock Creek girls volleyball went to 3A state and the Rock Creek football team was in the 4A playoffs. Seems to me those two seasons run at the same time. How can one school have one sports team 3A and another 4A??? How does this work?

Football classifcations hold for two years. We had the same thing happen at Independent. All sports but football moved up to 4A right in the middle of the fall sports schedule.
