re: Karr wants to stay in the Catholic league, Chalmette wants in a 9 team Northshore district

you are embarrassing yourself, your school and your community.

You wouldn’t even play those schools in the playoffs so why do you care?

wow

That’s even more embarrassing

I hope you don’t have kids and procreate this mindset of victim mentality into more people. But, that is basically Chalmette as a whole. Everywhere else in the state the GOOD publics aren’t afraid of private school teams. 1A is definitely the class for yall.

So go beat them!

Yeah, just go beat Karr and John Curtis as an average nonselect school that’s happy to get to the quarterfinals we had a whole arse party for the first practice that week last year

No , they tried to get away from them for FAIR competition, as Zachary and Catholic actively recruit kids, even though Zachary is non-select.

Big difference

This is very true….. Chalmette should just play their JV team. Maybe they can win that

Yep either that or go play picayune and poplarville in the MSAHSA. That's where the other half is

There were no legitimate reasons to break up the old 4-5A and 5-5A districts. District composition should not be determined by schools avoiding competition.

The Livingston Parish and Ascension Parish 5A schools are all very similar in most all of the sports offered by the LHSAA. Some teams have up years and down years, but overall the 6 schools that originally made up the 5-5A district have boys and girls programs that are able to field competitive teams within the district and then make a good showing in the playoff brackets. The term "like minded schools" was thrown around quite a bit when this district was being formed. The 4-5A district comprised of 4 select schools joined by Central and Zachary. If you use football only, a nice little study would be to find the percentage of the 22 offensive and defensive starters at Zachary and Central that went to the Zachay and Central Middle Schools. Then compare it with the 5-5A district teams and the percentage of their 22 starters that attended their feeder middle schools. You might find that those numbers would be very closely matched for the LP and AP schools while the Zachary and Central numbers would be closer to the numbers found with their select school counterparts in the 5-5A district.

Travel for all of the games was a big issue. Baton Rouge trafic is a nightmare. Think of all the 5:00 and 6:00 midweek JV games being played. The teams traveling from AP to Baton Rouge, or from Baton Rouge to LP have a brutal time. The travel for AP to LP is all done with back highways and even the farthest schools (Live Oak to Dutchtown is less than 45 minutes). Now that Catholic is going to join back with the LP schools I hope their parents enjoy fighting that traffice from Acadian Ave to Live Oak High School. They need to leave about an hour and fifteen minutes ahead of time to make sure to see kickoff / tipoff / first pitch.
