Beamerball 566 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) man, im really confused with all this stuff...could you gimme an example of what may happen to Grundy? Well if they did go through with it (the 5 division model that is), and assuming that they choose the 450-800 or so set for Div.2 (which I don't they're set on the breakdown yet either) and assuming Grundy falls in that range as now...then they would go into Div. 2. Each of the 5 divisions are to be divided into four sections (kind of like regions are now). So they would into this area's section. Using the presentation, that would be "section A"...and in the western super section (two super sections, east and west for each division). Based on current figures (although they're also not sure what set of numbers they'll be using), Div. 2 would look something like this.. Div. 2 (451-800) Eastern Super Section Section D Greensville Co. Nottoway Bluestone Brunswick Warhill Bruton Arcadia Nandua Northampton Essex Lancaster Northumberland Washington & Lee King William Matthews Windsor Park View (SH) Section C Goochland Thomas Jefferson Maggie Walker Warren County Wilson Memorial Clarke Co. Madison Co. Manassas Park George Mason Strasburg Buffalo Gap Central (W) East Rockingham (2010)* Jackson Stonewall-Q Luray Page County Nelson Co. Western Super Section Section B Central (Lunenburg) Amelia County Fort Defiance Stuarts Draft Riverheads Cumberland Randolph-Henry Buckingham Co. Appomattox Chatham Dan River Gretna James River Floyd Co. Glenvar Section A Martinsville Giles Radford Fort Chiswell Grayson Co. Patrick Henry (GS) Graham Grundy Richlands Tazewell John Battle Gate City Lebanon Virginia J.J. Kelly Powell Valley Of course, that could all change too (that's the way the presentation had things broken down for now). And some have drifted back and forth, like Lee, so they could end up in Div. 3 or Div. 2, depending on how things work out. They've said in the forums that may freeze the current districts for a couple of years or so while going to this format. Look at it like football and basketball with teams within different divisions within the district, and come postseason time they enter their division for the playoffs. The sections can decide how teams will advance into postseason play. So it could be like the current process. The "overall record" and others were just examples given. But it does look like they want to eventually get away from district play. Once regular season is up, the teams go on to the Sectional playoffs..the Sectional champs move on to the two Super Sectionals (ex. winner of section D would play the winner of section C and Section B champ would play the Section A champ), the winners there would play for the state title. Hope I explained all that correctly. Again, some of it could change..still have another vote, some more discussion, and the a "final" vote. They've also mentioned other models for discussion (like 6 division). Edited January 28, 2009 by Beamerball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beamerball 566 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 From the Kingsport-Times... "The VHSL Division Playoff Study Group appears to have backed away from a proposal to divide Virginia’s schools into five classifications. In a meeting in Charlottesville last Friday, the committee voted 12-0 to recommend suspending further consideration of the most recent five- and six-division proposals. While an assortment of concerns were cited, the deal-breaker seems to be recognition that, according to a VHSL press release, “it will be important not to reduce the number of state-level football and basketball games since these are crucial for sustaining the operations and programs of the league.” " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
