temptation Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) This list, lol. I’d love to see a further breakdown of the methodology. Edited April 26 by temptation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTF Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Wondering what puts Dwenger and Snider over Universities of Homestead and Carroll ? It appears that they may be giving credits for championships going back decades. A more accurate measurement would be what has transpired in the last ten years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grover Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 "These rankings factor in parent and student surveys on sports, total high school enrollment, K-12 sports championships, number of sports, and athletic participation rates." Public schools will never match private schools on athletic participation rates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure how CG made this list…I’ve been told by so many people they have a culture problem permeating through their entire community. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of that is inevitably due to it being a relatively new (last 10-15 hrs) sport down here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
