Meece never puts it 7th grade in the state playoffs. Only 8th.

Sometimes the path to a D3 and D2 championship is easier than a 7th grade championship. Especially when some regions in D2 and D3 only have a couple teams. I understand why some schools don't participate in 7th grade with numbers that just won't allow it. But, there are schools that could compete at both levels. Meece is probably a top 5 7th grade and top 5 in D3 so this may be the only way they win by combining the two, but they probably could have made a run in both.
