Girls State Tournament Location and Format

[chxian]

Does anyone know the outcome of the vote on the location for the Girls State Tournament 2003-2005 and if the number of teams is expanding from 4 to 8?

Chattanooga and the finals will still be played at Finley, but they will use GPS and CCS fields for early rounds bc its 8 teams now

Thank you

[CREE]

So will all 8 region champs advance to Chatt. or will the top two from each region advance to a sectional game REgion 1 winner plays region 2 runner up , region 2 winner hosts region 1 runner up , etc

It would be nice to see more teams get a chance to advance and play another match

maybe they should just expand it to include everyone...its a joke to include more team.....with 3 divisions its already a diluted state tournament. teams with average ability and possibly losing records already make the final four of there division on a regular basis. i think the regular season should mean something. if you dont win, then you dont advance....right now, the district tournament means nothing....you can lose in the finals and still advance...and the same for region.....if you lose, you ought to have to go home....if you dont like that hard rule, then simply win the ball game and you dont have to worry about it....
