Somewhat surprised by Merrillville possibly moving down. They are a state contender in 5A. When all is said and done, I would expect Evansville North to be in 5A - their DOE school enrollments tend to be less than the IHSAA enrollments, which would send Huntington North to 4A. This will probably be Whiteland's last cycle in 5A before moving up to 6A next year. 

The Terre Haute schools dropping to 4A is a bit surprising. Both were solidly middle-5A programs a few years ago. TH doesn't seem to be bleeding population, but schools like Mt. Vernon, Greenfield-Central, Pendleton Heights and Northridge will probably continue to grow and push into 5A, eventually bumping FW North and BNL (as well as the TH schools) more permanently into 4A, as has already happened with former 5A teams Richmond, Marion & Muncie Central. 

I agree that Evansville North will most likely be 5A. But adding the TH schools and BNL to the 4A mix will be a new change. 

With those coming down and it looks like Brebeuf, Roncalli, and Chatard will all be in the same sectional. At least that means Marion, Western, and Muncie Central will no longer be forced to 4A ‘South.’

With the consolidation of the Hammond high schools, and the addition of Dugger Union in 22-23 (needs to be included in the upcoming cycle), I think there will be 318 schools with football.  That puts 32 in 5A and 6A, 2 of the lower classes with 63 and 2 with 64.  I am not sure if there is an IHSAA policy on which class should have fewer schools, but in basketball they usually align 1A with the most and 4A with the least.  The plan I read for the Hammond schools was to realign the district to split their enrollment somewhat evenly, which would put them around 1700 or so students in each high school.  Here are the numbers I have (slightly different from crimsonace).

At first glance, and again, nothing is official until the IHSAA releases it ... 

No surprise that Zionsville is moving to 6A, but i am a bit surprised Jeffersonville's enrollment has jumped enough to move it up. If this holds, it looks like (once again) there will be some crazy sectional travel in northern Indiana. And Carmel will likely be back in the northern half of the bracket. 

Somewhat surprised by Merrillville possibly moving down. They are a state contender in 5A. When all is said and done, I would expect Evansville North to be in 5A - their DOE school enrollments tend to be less than the IHSAA enrollments, which would send Huntington North to 4A. This will probably be Whiteland's last cycle in 5A before moving up to 6A next year.

Not a huge surprise there's lots of movement between 2A and 3A, as there are a ton of schools between 475-525 enrollment and one large or one small class can cause lots of movement. 

i'm wondering why you think Carmel will be moved back north? With Zionsville up to 6A, wouldn't they be the choice to replace Merrillville? Two northern teams moving down to 5A, but Zionsville and the Hammond consolidation up to 6A, to me it seems logical that those two new 6A teams will be placed north, with Carmel staying put in the south. Unless I'm missing something here.

Zionsville was south last year and Carmel north. Why would it be any different now?

They way I see it for 6A, Zionsville definitely goes south. Carmel goes north. Now that’s going to get interesting for sectional alignments. I really did not think Jeffersonville would be back to 6A. 

Obviously numbers can change from now until whenever the Ihsaa releases the new enrollments

Yes I agree. I love to see different and new matchups, but I think if these end up being the enrollment numbers that this is what the sectionals will look like.

I don’t think those numbers will stay the same though. According to the DOE school compass, Harrison (West Lafayette) is tracking their population downwards and they are at 1,950 at the moment. Some of the other numbers on that list are different as well. There is a chance Whiteland jumps up to 6A with as fast as they are growing

The DOE’s compass site shows last year’s (19-20) enrollments.  Harrison is up 100 students over last year.  The 2020 senior class had around 470.  Their freshman class this year has 574.

Harrison is probably actually tracking up.  I'm basing this on the past couple months of driving my son to football practice out there.  There's a new subdivision going in within a mile east of Harrison and another one going in roughly a mile west.  I don't know the specifics, but I thought I'd heard that there were supposed to be about close to 300 new households between the two of those.  I'd be surprised if Harrison doesn't end up in 6A in the 2023 cycle, but it may well go in the 2021 cycle.  Either way, I think it's just a matter of time before Harrison passes up Jeff as the largest school in the Lafayette/West Lafayette area.

Yes, how dare them spend any time to do something different.  Better to keep the status quo and make sure we continue to have as many blowouts in championship games as we can.

But this year, Carmel was in south while Zionsville was north in 5A. Geographically, Carmel is further north than Zionsville, so I could see them going back to north section.

I took a shot at 3A with HoopsCoach's classifications:

25 - Calumet, Hanover Central, Hammond Clark, Griffith, Knox, Benton Central, Twin Lakes, West Lafayette

26 - Mishawaka Marian, SB Washington, John Glenn, Jimtown, Fairfield, Tippecanoe Valley, Peru, Maconaquah

27 - (only put 7 in this one) West Noble, Garrett, Lakeland, Woodlan, FW Concordia, Heritage, Bellmont

28 - Western Boone, North Montgomery, Crawfordsville, Guerin Catholic, Hamilton Heights, Speedway, South Vermillion, Tri-West

29 - Danville, Monrovia, Indy Washington, Washington, Owen Valley, Indian Creek, Brown County, Edgewood

30 - Mississinewa, Alexandria, Northwestern, Yorktown, Rushville, Batesville, Greensburg, Franklin County

31 - Salem, North Harrison, Corydon Central, Madison, South Dearborn, Scottsburg, Charlestown, Lawrenceburg

32 - Mt Vernon, Evansville Bosse, Gibson Southern, Pike Central, Southridge, Heritage Hills, Vincennes Lincoln, Princeton

 

I like this alignment.  Sectional 25 had a hole in it and West Lafayette makes more geographic sense than anyone else to fill it I think with Benton Central and Twin Lakes already in it as well.  I put Mississinewa in Sectional 30 rather than 27 partially because they fit in geographically with schools like Alexandria and Northwestern and I think that program could beef up that sectional a little.  Sectional 28 looks a little different with Chatard moving up.  I put Western Boone in their spot and while I moved West Lafayette to 25, I shifted Tri-West from 29 to 28 so it still looks plenty tough to me.

As for balance, I count 11 teams in the "new" 3A that finished in the top 100 in Sagarin in 2020.  All 8 sectionals has at least one and only one (Sectional 28) has 3.  I'd love to move one of those 3 to a different sectional but can't figure out a way to do it that makes sense.  I think the teams in 31 and 32 pretty much have to be where they are based on geography but that's just from me looking at a map.  That's the part of the state I'm least familiar with.  

Any thoughts?  Complaints?

My mistake - I took out Gavit and forgot to take out Clark.  That would shift West Vigo to 3A and Adams Central to 2A.  63 in all classes from 1A to 4A.

Taking out a Hammond school and putting one in from Terre Haute changes things.  Moved John Glenn over to sectional 25 to take the place of the Hammond school.  Moved Northwestern into 26 (out of 30).  Moved Mississinewa back north to fill 27 (out of 30).  Moved Guerin Catholic out of 28 to make room for West Vigo.  Moved Guerin Catholic into 30 to replace both Northwestern and Mississinewa going north.  Sectional 30 now only has 7.

I actually like this a little better because I think moving Guerin Catholic to 30 balances everything a bit better than having them stay in 28.

Thought about starting a separate thread for Southern 3A sectional alignment possibilities ...but this could/would serve the same purpose. 

Don't hate what you have down here - but I think it could be improved. (I don't believe you can but Missinneswea and Alexandia in the SOUTHERN sectionals....also, believe you left off some teams)Here is what I've come up with and reasoning with it.

Sectional 29 (we'll call this the "Indy Sectional") - Danville, WeBo, Tri-West, Ritter, Indian Creek, Indy Washington, Manual, and Guerin Catholic

Sectional 30 (HAD to be fixed. We'll call this the "come on up Highway 41 Sectional) - West Vigo, Washington, Princeton, Gibson Southern, Vincennes Lincoln, Edgewood, Greencastle, and Brown County 

Sectional 31 (We'll call this Eastern Indiana) - Franklin County, Lawrenceburg, North Harrison, Batesville, Charleston, Scottsburg, Owen Valley, and Rushville. *Not sure about the competitive balance here..but I think it's better than the ol Sectional 30...

Sectional 32 (What's left in Southern Indiana) - Corydon, Salem, Pike Central, Southridge, Heritage Hills, Bosse, Mt. Vernon

Sectional 29 (we'll call this the "Indy Sectional") - Danville, WeBo, Tri-West, Ritter, Indian Creek, Indy Washington, Manual, and Guerin Catholic

Sectional 30 (HAD to be fixed. We'll call this the "come on up Highway 41 Sectional) - West Vigo, Washington, Princeton, Gibson Southern, Vincennes Lincoln, Edgewood, Greencastle, and Brown County 

Sectional 31 (We'll call this Eastern Indiana) - Franklin County, Lawrenceburg, North Harrison, Batesville, Charleston, Scottsburg, Owen Valley, and Rushville. *Not sure about the competitive balance here..but I think it's better than the ol Sectional 30...

Sectional 32 (What's left in Southern Indiana) - Corydon, Salem, Pike Central, Southridge, Heritage Hills, Bosse, Mt. Vernon 

Well we have to agree on what teams there will be before trying to set up sectionals that make sense.  Mine has the 63 that HoopsCoach provided (after the Hammond edit).  

And you have to include some schools in Indy and north of Indy in the south.  The numbers don't work without it.  

32 - Spencer and Dubois counties and everything directly west of them.

31 - Washington/Harrison counties directly through Dearborn county.

30 - This is my hodgepodge sectional.  Basically 2 clusters of 3 counties.  Hamilton/Madison/Delaware that all border northeast Indy.  Rush/Franklin/Decatur all east or a little southeast of Indy.

29 - This basically starts with Daviess county and grabs everything heading north towards Indy including Danville in southern Hendricks county and Washington in Marion county until it is full.

If they want to kinda stick with the theme of the last realignment...you might be onto something here.  But if they want to make it more like before....not so much.
