They both had 3A numbers. I know the Patriots got wind of Pearl Cohn moving up to 4A and that helped Heritage make their decision to move down. They don’t get to “decide” to move down. You can only “decide” to play up in classification. The reason they are in 3A is because they have 3A numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason for playing up in 4A was because they would have been in same region as the Metro Nashville schools. There’s no gate! I’m certain on this point.

In example 4A and want to play 3A to cut down travel wouldn’t be allowed. You’re right about playing up for that same reason, to cut down travel. That is what y’all did the past couple years when you were in our Region. Man, I sure enjoyed that Region too. GREAT fan support at all the schools and all schools were an easy drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played up the last 3 years, being the smallest school in 4A (because they had 3A enrollment). Coach decided to play/move back down to their correct classification in 3A. We really are splitting hairs here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have enough hair left to split LOL Yes and how you comprehend the words on the rule. Example - Ravenwood is 6A - they cannot ask to play 5A based on their enrollment, they have too many kids to be in that classification. Pearl Cohn enrollment is 3A, but they asked for and were granted permission to play 4A. They could have asked for and but not been granted permission to play 2A based on their number of students. They can ask for and be granted permission to play 3A again if their enrollment numbers fall in that category. I could not help but split more hairs on this subject - I have extra to split! LOL! Having said that, in my opinion adding WHH, WH, and Waverly to this region has made it stronger - in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
