Sounds great in theory, but how do you do that? What if you have a 8-2 Loudon team losing to to CAK and Alcoa and a 10-0 Camden team who plays in a weak district, who would you seed first?

Camden schedules good out of district games to compensate. They can't help that the T$$AA moved them into a weak district to up the gates at these schools!

Sorry but total wins just encourages scheduling the weakest schedule possible.

And, do you really think winning the Polk Co disrict means as much as coming in second to Alcoa? Srength of schedule should be number one in seeding.

So, using your example, Polk Co. should be punished for their location on the map? Seems fair. <_<

Westview's strength of schedule and District Championship lands us a Round one trip to Memphis. We play one of the toughest schedules in the state, year in and year out and go undeafeated on the District, and still face a long road trip....and a victory in Memphis gets us another road trip to Camden. This encourages weak schedules and diminishes the the meaning of District champions. If you play hard and lose to a team that goes 10-0 or 9-1, it means nothing...you still hit the road in round one in our case.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming.
