So what made them move down a class? You would think with all those wins and championship, they would stay or even move up and play the likes of Trinity, St. X or any of Louisville powerhouse. I don't know, can you explain?

When they did the classifications PRIOR to the latest one, KHSAA allowed Highlands to move up from where they were classified in 3A to 5A and CovCath to move up from where they were classified in 4A, also to 5A for the exact reason (geography) you mentioned.

For whatever reason, the KHSAA, in their INFINATE wisdom, did not allow ANYONE to move for any reason under the most recent reclassification. This time, the Birds had enough students to be classified as the smallest 4A school, which at least kept them from dropping all of the way back to 3A.
