I get it, they have a tough schedule, but "destroy?" They'd lose to Crown Point. I don't see them beating Merrillville or Valpo by much more than a touchdown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren just needs to get lucky against Center Grove. If they can build on their playoff success they may shock some people next year. But, they have Center Grove in their regional...Not liking their chances. Based on Snider and Laf Harrison (fairly confident assumption based on enrollement) moving up to 6A and Valpo being a "?"...is it possible for some big realignment in Sectionals 3 & 4? Warsaw, Jeffersonville, Tech, and FW Northrop are currently the bottom of 6A...if the right two of those drop out, you have a possibility of 2 "North" schools dropping to the "South". I assume that would need to be Zionsville & Carmel, or HSE & Fishers. I have a strong feeling at least one school from sectional 3 or 4 will go south next time. Zionsville seems to be the one more often lumped in BBurg/Avon in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have seen and heard many state that Whiteland is only a matter of time before reaching 6A status for enrollment. Not sure how close they are.

BLACKGOLD2007 Posted November 28, 2023 Author Share Posted November 28, 2023 With the NIC going to a 7 game conference schedule, I am curious if Penn drops either Mishawaka or Carmel... I have not heard a thing on what the plan is....Maybe send the JV to play Washington or Riley is in the cards and we can keep both and add another top 6A program to the schedule.

Everything I've been told by insiders at Warsaw is their enrollment is higher now than it was during the last enrollment count. I am expecting they will still be in 6A, but again in the bottom 3 or so. Warsaw being a 6A team is a big deal in our area. It is a dying breed up here. My fingers are crossed that you guys stay up.

Zionsville seems to be the one more often lumped in BBurg/Avon in the past. I hate that they continue to do things like this. Force two good teams from near Indy down into the south. The Ft. Wayne guys could speak to this better, but I doubt Northrop wants to play 6A tourney ball, give them their reprieve and let them go down to 5A. That means there is no need to force anyone south. Portage is not competitive in 6A anymore, send them down to 5A and move Valpo up. Laf Harrison is the wild card, if they move up. I would like to keep Warsaw in 6A, give 5A either Indy Tech or Jeffersonville. That will require one of the teams you listed to move south. Give them Carmel.

To be “technical”…Zionsville is further south than Carmel. Carmel sits on 131st (Main) st…Zionsville sits on what would be 121st if it went all the way thru. Both are further south than Westfield or Noblesville which both sit north of 32. HSE & Fishers always go together based on IHSAA desire to bracket schools in same district together. They are both off of 126th on opposite sides of 69. Of course IHSAA May decide to change things up and do something else for completely illogical reasons.🤷🏼♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would that be so illogical to send schools from the same district to 2 different sectionals. If it ever came down to it, and things were really based on north and south, why would it be such a a big deal to split schools in the same district up? Never fully understood why that is a priority of the IHSAA to keep district schools together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying I agree or disagree with it, but IHSAA does not want one district to be able to win more than one title (and that is at the sectional level). There is no way in Hades that IHSAA would put HSE and Fishers in separate halves of the state and potetentially have both make it to LOS.
