State Tournament teams by Football Class

Also Pikeville went to the Final Four in 2010 as a Single A school and very well could have brought home the trophy. It would not have meant as much winning a Single A State Tournament as finishing in the Final Four in the regular State Tournament. This can be argued and defended from both sides but as for me and mine, leave Baseball alone.

I respect your opinion, however........

Ask Belfry if their AAA football titles mean "less" because it wasn't an un-classed state title. Ask the schools in West Virginia, or Ohio, or Virginia, etc. if their state titles in baseball means "less".

I don't buy anyone's argument that mentions "water-down" state titles with a classified system. I think a 4 class system, with a super-regional (double elimination) and a semi-state (best of three) concluding with a Final Four state championship would be great. What the state would get, and see, is the top 16 teams ranging from small to large schools in the state tournament. This would not be "watered down", you would have the 4 best A, AA, AAA, and AAAA teams in the state. What you would NOT get is the current system:

1 or 2 small size schools vs. the large schools.
