Reclassifications in 2009 in 4A and 5A statewide

[tricitiessportsfan]

Any information, throw it out there. I understand Daniel Boone and David Crockett are apt to move up from 4A to 5A. Anybody else know of moves up or down in any part of the state?

'Rumor' is that Maryville and Mt Juliet will both be moving up to 5A also.

If Anderson County and Seymour's numbers stay the same or increase, they will probably be going to 4A. Fulton is also near the limit for 3A.

David Crockett is already at 5A enrollment. They petitioned the TSSAA to let them remain at the 4A level back at the reclassification in fall of 2004.

According to TSSAA's website Crockett exceeded the limit to play in 4A back in '04. I thought teams were only allowed to either play in their right classification or play up? Do you think it was due to travel expenses or because they haven't been competitive at the 4A level?

You can elect to play up, but you must petition the TSSAA to play down.

 

I'm sure it was competition. That was back in the midst of their long, long losing streak.

JCM will likely move down to 3A. They have 680 kids this year. I`m assuming that`s at the 3A level. Anyone know what the cutoff was for the smallest 4A school this year?

Yes, Mount Juliet moving up for sure. Have friends in the community, the school is booming.

The cut off number is not not a cut off number. If there are 320 schools that play FB they divide it by 5 (classifications) and thats how it is done. It is very fluid as oppose to the old fix number system that led to very unequal numbers in each classification due to growth, consolidation or communities losing population as well.

 

Crockett's growth was due to an alternative learning program that represented students from 3 HS as well as students from Johnson City and other counties that were not eligible to play sports. They may still be 5A next time but that was what the petition was about last time.

Have heard on other threads that Maryville is moving up for sure.Does anybody know anything about Knox Powell, Knox West, Knox Central, Knox Halls enrollments or possibly moving up?
