That Bowling Green goes to Lamar, Fair Grove Plays South Shelby. Now correct me if I'm wrong, Lamar and FG 60 miles or so apart. BG and SS in same neighborhood. Parents travel 100s of miles, when they could travel 60. MSHSAA has made much geographical nonsense in 30 yrs I spent coaching, but is inexplicable. How about seed after quarters? At least there could be a basis for pairings.

It's all about avoiding the same teams knocking each other out each year

That would be hard in a 7 to 8 team district setting unless you broke Springfield up into 3 different districts 2 with kc teams and 1 with south central to central teams but then we have the travel complaint again. No perfect answer for all
