With all this redistricting that has gone on in the last few years, let me bring up a point. Why are Madison Co., or the 44th district for say move South and out of the 11th Region. Before you all say anything you will say Madison Central. Ok, and I agree. But if you really think about it that is the only dominant team. Madison Southern goes through spells of having decent team, but they are no better in other sports than most team south of Richmond. Look back at all the scores the last 20 years, I would say Madison Southern is maybe .500 against those teams maybe better against some but under .500 in several sports including Basketball, Football, Baseball, Track, Soccer, ANY OF IT. Yes, Madison Central is an 11th Region power is basketball, and solid in football, baseball, and most other sports. Not to mention you add 2 Class A schools in Berea and Model, to go along with Somerset, Lynn Camp, Pineville, Red Bird, OBI and so on. Teams are having to travel all over hell's half acre for football. It just makes it easier. I know South of Berea you guys are probably like HELL NO. It's really 1 power school and 3 teams who are like the rest of south of Lexington.

My thought is also this, East and West Jessamine aren't in the 11th but they are closer to Lexington than anybody in the 44th district, closer than many 11th Region teams but they keep packing it in. Its a tough call for most I know.

I just think this whole alignment thing is NUTS, when geographically speaking its the same trip south as it is north for the 44th, and would benefit a lot of people and schools if this happened. Nobody likes 1 dominant school all the time, and I think the gap between others and that 1 school would close at a pretty quick rate.
