Very nice on the data! Always enjoy your work. I wonder where c2 and C1 will be cut off for hoops next year? Will be interesting. Are they going off this year's enrollment or next year? I also hear they are going to calculate differently? North Andrew has flirted with Class 2 for a while, and I wonder about SJC... has their enrollment grown any since school started?

Looks like Albany may go back down and stanberry was on track to, but a big jump for them!

And good grief Trenton is huge compared to 3/4 of the conference.

Meeting at the MSHSAA office on Thursday to discuss reclassification in all athletics/activities. If the petition to go to 4 public and 2 private classes in basketball has enough correct signatures then nothing will be done until after the vote in April.

SJC will definitely be C2 next year.

Kearney and Platte County would never go for this. I also think PC will be making a move to the large in the next couple years. They both like scheduling Top 10 Class 5 opponents. This would just ensure a lot of turbo clock victims.
