That should be good for both sides.

It would really cut down on travel.. But Bolivar playing schools the same size of bigger or a regular basis.. That would really be a change.... But overall would be better for both Bolivar and Central

If it’s true I love it! A lot of us have wanted this for years. I know they say be careful what you ask for but I’m excited about the higher level of competition.

Based on something just said on Sports Talk, Art Hains mentioned that Bolivar will be applying as a full member for the 2020-21 season. Now, how will that work with 11 members in the other sports? I guess a 10-game schedule in basketball instead of 9?

 

[Liberator Dad]

That’s what I would expect.

Bolivar is an easier trip to make than Rolla (which I've never done) and West Plains.
