St Joe Christian and Northland Christian KC to COOP 11 man
- Thread starter bhunt95
- Start date
According to google, it is a 43 minute drive.
North Harrison has a 30 minute drive to Pattonsburg.
Northeast Nodaway is 29 minutes to Woth County.
North Nodaway is 28 minutes to West Nodaway.
So it is a little farther, but only about 15 min more than what other schools are doing.

Gallatin, South Harrison and Polo are similar to Pattonsburg, Worth County and Braymer. It’s the other 4 that are much longer. And most likely, they will only have 2 road games against them a year. Plus, they already play Putnam County, Milan and Trenton in Baseball.
There are many schools that have long bus trips to games.

Other things that might be happening that along with this that may impact scheduling if the co-op ultimately happens:
1. LeBlond has been rumored to go 8-man. This would open up some games for Christian. I don't think they would want to play bigger MEC schools, but there may be a few games that open up from LeBlond moving down.
2. Polo may end up going 8-man in the next couple seasons. This would even out the divisions again in the GRC.
3. With the WEMO schools and Slater going 8-man, there may be some schools that have open games that Christian may be able to play next year.
A lot of unknowns at this time. Christian may have to go one year without playing a conference schedule. Of course, all of this is speculation at this time.

Slater is not going 8 man for 2019, but I do think it's coming in the coming years. When is LeBlond going to decide about 8 man?
I was told Slater was going 8-man this year, so just assumed it was so. Don't know about LeBlond, but Lafayette AD posted in another thread that they were in search of a game for the week that they have LeBlond scheduled. Plus they had less than 20 returning players and when I talked to their AD, he said that that the freshman class was not expected to add much.
I saw the open date and have heard it mentioned by a couple of coaches over there, but no one seems to know much other than it's possible.
The COOP team (St. Joe Christian / KC Northland Christian). Since its 40+ minutes between the two schools.
Just a clarification since I have already seen this posted elsewhere. SJCS will not compete in GRC next season. They plan to compete in GRC after next season. It was too late to build a schedule for 2019 season to play GRC games.
