I, for one, love it. And that is coming from a guy who is a fan of a Class A school. KY just does not have enough schools to warrant a huge number of classes. If there was a 6-class system in baseball, you would essentially be competing against 31 other schools for a STATE title. Sounds really exciting.

And the class system is working so beautifully in football. God knows what the KHSAA would do to kill the other sports.

Sorry that I disagree. There is nothing beautiful about a system that denies good teams a shot. Fact is that large schools have the advantage. They have larger numbers. You are OK with a small school winning it every 20 years? Sorry, that doesn't excite me. And for a person like yourself who seems to really like baseball, how can this no class system be exciting for that sport? Teams in Louisville/Lexington will always have the upper hand. They can churn out 3 guys who would all be 15th Region #1's. But a 15th Region team, or 14th Region, goes in to the state tournament and may not have a legit #1 pitcher, and if they do (ex. Shepherd from LC; Hamilton at Pikeville) they may win a game or two, but no chance at winning 4 games now.


Trust me, other states have fun with a class system too. And there are other states that border Kentucky that have way fewer schools (ex. West Virginia) and have a 3-class system. It works, it's fun, it's exciting too.
