Schools like Benet, Fenwick, Loyola and Marmion are doing "well" yes. But it shouldnt matter how well they are doing now. The point is is taht these teams dont dominate. The point of the multiplier is to keep schools from dominating, they would not and do not, they compete. Do you have any support for this? I was under the impression that the multiplier's purpose was to keep the playing field level. "Domination" is not required for an unlevel playing field. QFT

i think it was stupid for the IHSA to pack that many amazing teams into one sectional, I mean look at Geneva they were a top ranked team they didnt make it out, and they diserved to
kinda unfair, but hey wat u gonna do lol

Yeah, we get it. The point is, it needs to change. If Geneva football can get in the freakin' bus and drive 5 hours down to East St. Louie, why won't the IHSA (Incompetent Hysterical Society of America) allow cross country teams to do the same to give these teams a fair chance to advance to state? Just another example off adults in power screwing things up for da kids.
OK, that's my first and last post for the year.

Schaumburg did run in the schaumnburg sectional... ccrox, i completly agree with your solution. unfortunatly, as we all know, why would the ihsa go to as much trouble for cross country teams as they do for football teams? It can never have to do with money...could it? 5 dollars per game as opposed to a free cc meet...? hmmmm

In the immortal words of Steve Martin in "The Jerk", "So, it's a PROFIT thing!" Shocking!
This was my last post. I'm butting out. Got my 2 cents in.
