    Westfield most affected by Skyview's opening

    Why the sarcasm? I simply made a point in response to your post that of the schools affected by Skyview's opening Westfield will be affected the most, and the main reason is not numbers. It is demographics, which is not something recent but has been happening for years. And I have no idea the...

    Westfield most affected by Skyview's opening

    It is not just numbers. It is also demographics, and in some cases specific neighborhoods that seem to produce kids who are attracted to certain sports. This area (NOVA) is the extremely diverse, the most in the state, and that has an impact on many things in the school systems, not just sports.

    Westfield most affected by Skyview's opening

    IMO you are correct that this will hurt Westfield the most. Athletically, especially football, the reduction in student population will only exacerbate the big change in demographics that has happened over the past 12-15 or so years, which has led to a noticeable change in overall athletic...

    Lets talk PORTAL

    It has ruined college football. I understand not every young person's decision about where to go initially is correct so everyone should get one opportunity to transfer. Otherwise, that is life-decisions have consequences. I am old school so I think you attend college to get an education first...

    2025 Playoff Pick'em - Championships

    I use some basic statistics such as points for/against, results against common opponents (if any), historical program strength, rankings on Massey, and my gut feeling if the numbers seem too far off. Yes, it is very unscientific. Given what little I know about teams in the lower classifications...

    Can someone please explain why…

    You might also add that playing down a level or two - which was done to be "fair" if teams played in mixed classification districts and had to play lower classification teams - gives bonus points that skew a team's power point average and make it much easier for a team with a schedule against...
