the problem there is 1. the smaller 3as are too small... for 4a 5a... and the 4a privates want no part of the 5a..

Yeah it would suck for a few schools.

Yulman has been a pretty awesome playing venue. Wish they'd look at that.

LHSAA enrollment numbers
What's the 3A/4A top cutoff? And Livingston has a high school now?

---

yes.. varsity next year.

I think around 680 ish is the cutoff.

Well, you may be mistaken, Owl.
Look just in the last couple pages. Archbishop Shaw "decided" YEARS ago to be good. How is that working out for them now? They are not good, and will drop in class leaving the Catholic League after being a member since the school opened.

In one sense, nicely, as they've built an on-campus stadium after 56 years in existence.

But look at how small the entire school has become. Look at how small their band is. I can clearly remember when they had a marching band of 300 strong marching in parades. Now? It takes all the band, auxiliary AND cheerleaders to spell out S H A W on the football field.

So, yes, they decided and did not stay that good.

Not really shaw's fault though...... It's also changing social demographics on the westbank... and a higher % of kids from WB that do go to catholic/private schools are crossing the river now because it's so easy.



back in 2001 I bet there were ZERO players from the WB at rummel....


and it should be noted that after the events in the spring of 2002.... they simply did not "try" to be good again.. not remotely like they had been

in the last 10 years tolls got eliminated on the CCC and we constructed a new wider Huey P...

Ghost the hank fallout was over when they went to dome twice....

The residual demographic changes after Katrina are what's killing them

Talking about from an administrative standpoint on that one, not athletic.

Interesting numbers. Just for conversation, the cutoff for 6A in Texas is 2150. There are about 250 schools in 6A.

Good thread
