splitting into big and small kinda took away from state duals anyway and now with teams bailing on sectionals and refusing bids its obvious Ky should go back to the old way. 8 regions, 2 teams per region qualify, meet up in late January and decide who the best dual team is in the state.
I'm happy for union they get to host something, hell they pretty much run the state the last several years so they deserve a big home meet and their fans are some of the best and will show up in full force. But are there hotels available for teams travelling 5+ hours?
