District tourney top 4 go to region. two districts make a region, top 4 go to state. 16 man state tourney. But Districts have got to be changed to make this happen. Look at last 5 year participants for each school and make districts more equal. Louisville no longer needs 2 districts/regions. Amen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grappler-of-old 44 Report post Posted June 24, 2021 Since we have been talking about possibly reducing state to 16 man by adding another tournament between now region and state, I did some research. Those who know me, know I'm a stat geek. I went through all the state tourneys and found this. Only the top two from district qualified for state up through 1979. In 1986 and 1987 they had 2 semi states where top 4 qualified (8 man state tourney) Since then 9 times have the top 4 qualifiers from a region placed in state. (or semi state for 86, and 87) *(only placed top 4 1964-1979) (placed top 6 1980-2001) (2002 started placing top 8) 1982 NK placed 4 at 132--------- 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th 1984 NK placed 4 at 112---------1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th 1984 NK placed 4 at 119---------3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th 1989 JC placed 4 at 103-------- 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th 1996 Lex placed 4 at 140------- 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th 2012 NK placed 4 at 120--------1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th 2114 NK placed 4 at 145-------- 2nd, 6th, 7th, 8th 2017 NK placed 4 at 126-------- 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th 2020 WK placed 4 at 113------- 1st, 2nd, 6th, 7th ** There is a possibility that I may have missed 1, it got a little confusing with re-districting) I thought this was interesting and maybe help in the thoughts on this topic.
