Why is Fountain Lake in 3A basketball conference and 4A football conference?

Football is treated differently than every other sport now....

Because AAA has to make everything complicated. Idon't see how you can justify schools playing in 2 classifications. The 3a-3 will have 3 schools competing in 4a football and then drop down to 3a. If your big enough to be 4a in 1 sport then you should be 4a in all sports.

Football had been used to classify schools forever....now AAA is separating it from every other sports, like it should have already been done IMO

I'll say that I'm happy that the 3A-8 will finally have eight teams again. For years it's only been five or six teams. Only three teams are staying put though while four are moving down and one moving up. Should be fun.

agree

Why, if your enrollment numbers put you in  4A, why should you be able to compete in 3A in basketball?

Did you not know about the new system that was approved by the supes to begin next year?

They are keeping 2A-7A in FB. and having 1A-6A in all other sports.  So, BB is losing a classification, and each class is picking up several schools.

Maybe...just maybe...if enough of y'all complain about this it will change tomorrow!

NOT!!!

However, if you approach it from the Clintoneese term "Politically Correct," and squawk Title IX issue!  They are using Football (Male only sport) as the determining factor for their classifications.  They have 2A thru 7A football (Male Only) classifications, and all other sports are 1A thru 6A!

BE SMART!!

Interesting argument...
Down in the great state of TExas, i know their Class 5A has two divisions for FB, similar to us having 6a and 7a.  But, do they have the same division system in other sports?

teachers pet

In Texas each class has 2 divisions, larger schools in D.1 and the others in D2, but all sports are played in this setup, at least that's the way it used to be.
