Scheduling will be difficult in a 3 team district. Hard to find games when other teams are playing district schedule.

Thats why I think you will see Raceland having South East Ohio teams like Portsmouth East or West, Ironton, Wheelersburg, Coal Grove, or possibly venture into WV as well. Ohio teams will benefit from playing Raceland due to their strength of schedule will help them in the computer rankings.craceland ca play their seasons out very similar to this:

Ashland
Boyd Co
Lawrence Co
Russell
Greenup Co
Coal Grove
Ironton
Fairview
Paintsville
Wheelersburg/Portsmouth/Huntington High(WV)

There have been a few attempts over the years to set up a series with Huntington. Its stupid though. You have one district in which the closest travel time is about an hour. The playing up and playing down crap is getting old. Play the habd ur delt. Deal with it and move on. Raceland and Fairviewhave always been in a district together. The others have been a revolving door of Paitsville, Nicholas Co, Paris, Bath Co and Lexington Christian. They need to drop t to 5 classe, no petitions, 5 year alignments. Then everyone could get what they want. Closer district games, more competition, more time to see how schools shape up number wise.
