We're just that in-between size of school that's going to be stuck with some travel.

You almost always have to do some decent travel for a sectional. But now we could be looking at going to Macomb, 75 miles away, for a regional.

I can't see that we're going to change our regular season schedules. With dollars the way they are now, we're conscious of playing schools as close as we can get anyway.

I did not realize that they had not made any kind of decision. It usually takes a year or so, but the IESA will follow suit of the IHSA.

Some districts have already started school, and also the record-high gas prices ... have sort of affected travel for this holiday weekend.

It's important that high school coaches and travel team coaches really get together on this thing and find that common ground, which is to benefit the kids.
