The state tournament should be something different than any other weekend tournament, and the way it is held now that is what it is, only spread out over 4 or 5 days. The same old fields that we play on all year, nothing different. Teams just show up and play. There is no special recognition of the players. If you were driving by you could not even tell it was the state tourney except for the 12X16 signs that the almighty TSSAA spent so much on. The girls deserve much more than they get. Why do the girls not get to play in a stadium atmosphere like baseball does? I know they dont every game but the girls get NOTHING!!!
The format is not going to change until the leadership at the top does, It would take to much effort on TSSAA part, I know they dont have time to change anything they might miss a retreat or something.
