Pretty sure you can no longer request to play up.  I believe they passed that last spring.

Well they played up this past august.

Belfry didn’t play up this past season.  They played under the assigned realignment for the past two years.  You can’t change in the middle of the assignment period other than to drop out of district play.   The enrollment number pre-Covid were used for the most recent and current classification.  The next one is coming in 2025.  So No….they didn’t “play up”.  They played where there we assigned based on 2020 enrollment.  Move on.

Well that's false, 2023 was a fresh alignment, the Board of Control voted to bring the 2025 alignment early and yes Belfry was classified as 2a .... https://khsaa.org/football/realignment/2...lments.pdf 

and here is where they requested to play in 3a https://khsaa.org/2023-football-realignm...oundaries/

Carry on.

I'll eat crow when I'm wrong.  I prefer it with BBQ sauce.....

Yes, I'll take mine with Honey mustard
