    8-Man Football Changes Coming

    Heaven forbid the Omaha Metro/Lincoln schools have to travel for state like a large amount of the state does for every other state tournament/championship.

    Basketball Boys Class C and D Subdistrict Brackets Released

    What if instead of every team qualifying for post-season play, it was set up more like football playoffs where only a set number of teams made the post-season? Just throwing it out there, but what about taking the top 32 teams in power points in our class C and D classes, seed them as such, then...

    Basketball Girls Basketball Participation numbers

    What makes you struggle to say flag football is a sport? Isn't it team sport? With similar rules to tackle football, high levels of physical activity, and the best way to introduce kids (boys or girls) to the sport while mitigating the risk of injury? All a sport has to be is physical activity...

    Basketball Boys Sub-District & Region Assignments

    What about teams traveling in football playoffs 4+ hours one way and into a different time zone to play their game? Do we need to eliminate that as well? The regions worked out quite well leading into state volleyball as far as I could tell. More or less the top 16 teams made it to a district...

    Burwell Basketball

    Just a few points on this, teams that are playing the same number of games as "back in the day" likely haven't updated schedules to modern games limits. A state tournament team can play around 30 games, I want you to look out at the end of the season come sub-district/regional time and see how...

    Volleyball NSAA Announces District / Sub-District Pairings

    Just playing some devil's advocate here, why shouldn't the 1 seed in a regional sub -district make the others travel for the first round game? Wouldn't that provide more of an advantage to the #1 seed in a regional sub? I understand that it's not ideal for teams that have to travel, but this was...

    Football Benson cancels remainder of season

    This right here. The majority of students that have transferred out of their home district that I have talked to have discussed moving districts because of academics. There are of course those families or students that do transfer for athletics, but they are the minority from my own experience...

    SV Football

    Right, I do not know these particular coaches, just commenting on the overall things I have begun noticing more. Certainly did not mean any slight against SV and their situation.

    SV Football

    You're definitely not wrong there, I think that there are far too many parents who are too laid back and not encouraging their kids to get out of their comfort zone to do some of these sports. I wish that students had to find at least one school sponsored sport or activity to participate in...

    SV Football

    While I don't condone canceling a season or forfeiting games without just cause (school-wide illness, injuries, players quitting the season) What advantage would a school like St. Pat's or DCS gain going into playoffs in a game against a depleted SV or Alma? It would be just like the other games...

    Basketball Boys Class C and D Sub-District Pairings Released

    Isn't that the ideal situation? There are usually one or two subs that have 3+ teams from the top 16, so to say that there is only one of those in D2 this year seems to be a big win in the best teams winning through sub-districts and the most likely collection of the 8 best teams once the state...

    It probably doesn't matter how good they are since they have the McCool boys in their sub! Hard to beat the best.

    Basketball Basketball Sub Districts?

    They were released on October 31st last year I believe, likely delayed this year due to Gross Catholic opting up to B. I would think we should see them any day.

    D-1 2nd round playoff pics

    High seeds should host throughout the playoffs, and I agree that I don't understand why the lower seed even has a chance to host the #1 seed. However, sometimes it is simply a scheduling issue, as I am sure that Ravenna believes that they are a top team with their undefeated record, they just...

    Basketball Classifications

    I think their May-Hay adaptation rolls off the tongue the best, but Mayes Center is a solid option as well.
