re: LHSAA round 1 playoffs

Probably going to watch Hahnville-Denham tonight unless it’s online.

Nvm just saw it’s on CST tonight

Why, the public school I went to has won state championships in every class. They voted against the split every time.

Typically shown on The Cube. No link posted yet.

They don’t use NFHS network anymore.

There wouldn’t be a split if it wasn’t for the overwhelming majority of public schools voting for it. A lot of the really good public schools have voted for it every time.

There will always be a segment of jealous public school bureaucrats that hate private schools, or actually like the idea of more state championships.

But the real problem is the handful of select schools that blatantly bend and break the rules. Instead of confronting that problem, the LHSAA has chosen the split.

West Monroe vs Central

I love all the streaming games they have these days. Might have to buy me some additional TV's to stream more games next year for the playoffs.

btw, in the power point era since 1999, among all 5A teams, only Southwood, McKinley, Central Lafourche, Bonnabel, and Grace King haven't hosted a state playoff game in any class

the next longest droughts are Natchitoches Central, 2002, Belaire, 2003, Broadmoor, 2003, Hammond, 2004, Chalmette, 2004, West Jefferson, 2004

Chalmette is the only team that can host with a win this week

Alright, time to see what Pooka can do in the playoffs.

I keep hearing Shaw went 0-10 and made playoffs but no explanation why. I don't follow high school sports so please fill me in.

Division I in Louisana has a very small number of teams so all the teams in that class make the playoffs. It's one of the many quirks resulting from the split.
