Then Knox should continue playing and not run.

Nope. We need to run. HC is so dang good that we are afraid to continue to play them... Now - go back and read that sentence a couple of times. Pause. Read it again. Yes - it is as stupid as it sounds.

Strategy matters when you make a schedule. Playing a top 5A team is a great choice when you are working a strategy that calls for building a tough schedule. We have that now with Bell. Every team needs games on its schedule that are likely wins. We can play with HC any day of the week but it will always be a tough game. That increases the chance for injuries and increases the risk of losing momentum with a loss. I applaud the decision to even out our schedule and let the Bears grumble and proudly pound their prideful fur about KC being afraid to play them. We are working to win banners not out of conference and region wins.

So go tell all your friends KC is terrified of the big bad Bears... We will keep working to win a 4A state championship.
