Never mind. Looks a lot like the "Neutral sites" the IHSAA claims to support... but does nothing to help bring about. Regional games forward should all be played at Neutral sites within similar driving distances for both teams. There are enough turf fields located at convenient locations around the state to support this...but the IH$AA will not. Why$?

Never mind. Here is what I posted on the Moving Tournament Game Sites topic. Similar to the sites that you posted. One more time - hypothetical neutral sites for semi-state. 2 games at each site, played on Saturday, November 20th. Games at 1 and 6 (not necessarily in the order listed below), which allows time between games to present trophy, clear locker rooms, fans can tailgate or go grab a meal somewhere, and warmups for game 2. Nobody with a drive more than 2 hours. @Elkhart New Prairie/Northridge Andrean/Eastside @Warsaw Brebeuf/Marian North Judson/Adams Central @Lafayette Jeff Merrillville/Westfield Michigan City/Zionsville @Franklin Central Center Grove/Ben Davis Indy Lutheran/Tri @Bloomington South Mount Vernon/Evansville Memorial Scecina/Mater Dei @Bloomington North Cathedral/New Albany Tri-West/Gibson Southern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indiana Fan Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 If the IHSAA had the same format as in recent years with knowing which classes were on Friday and which were on Saturday for state finals weekend, they could play specific games on Friday nights and specific games on Saturday. This would help with planning and prep and rest time for the following weeks Championship game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If things work out for SW Ind, it might be cool to have 2/3/4 on one day... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one issue could be having enough seats for all the SW Indiana fans. I know Memorial & MD have typically travelled very well to Lucas Oil, unfamiliar with Gibson Southern but no reason to think otherwise.

I would rather them just keep it how it is. No disrespect to other classes, but I just feel the biggest classes should end the night.
