Re: Missouri 2018
The state numbers are out. Missouri is only getting one bid for nationals. We missed out by one state. Here is the link, https://www.soinc.org/sites/default/fil ... nament.pdf

The MO state tournament was cancelled because of inclement weather. Stay tuned for the rescheduling!

It's not April Fool's Day anymore, so did you all get tornados or something?

I thought that the weather was supposed to be really nice, but apparently it's going to be rough.Alex-RCHS wrote:*checks date*dxu46 wrote:The MO state tournament was cancelled because of inclement weather. Stay tuned for the rescheduling!

Re: Missouri 2018
Does anyone know why in division B, a max of 5 9th graders is allowed on the team? I see this as an unfair advantage to teams that are trying to give there 8th graders time on the team.

Re: Missouri 2018
Some division B schools goes up to 9th grade, and it would be unfair to let them compete and not other 9th graders and it would also be unfair to not let them compete, as they are still from the school.WydownScioly wrote:Does anyone know why in division B, a max of 5 9th graders is allowed on the team?

Re: Missouri 2018
Also since freshman tend to not have as high of a chance of making their high school's team, allowing 5 9th grader's in Div B lets them still compete.

Re: Missouri 2018
I doubt that plays a big part. It's significantly easier for a freshman to be as good as someone a few years older than for a 6th grader.hippo9 wrote:Also since freshman tend to not have as high of a chance of making their high school's team, allowing 5 9th grader's in Div B lets them still compete.
