More divisions

With the talk about going to more divisions in basketball I would like to see more in track. Too many schools can't put someone in every event and a lot can't put two in every event. When those schools go to a district it is hard to advance as a team. In track Div. I is just like other sports too big a difference between top to bottom.

Agree 100%. 5 kids count as a team in basketball 6 in volleyball correct? and that justifies more divisions; why not 5 girls or 5 boys as a team in track? Stuck with 3 divisions, the disparity top to bottom in each division is ridiculous.

Meanwhile, 9 kids count as a team in track, which is what really hurts and causes these huge districts.

With the way PV hits the Portal, your CB number will keep going up so you will still move up a Division or 2 😂🤣

This doesn't include track and field. Does track not have a voice at the statewide level?

We have our track coaches clinic this upcoming weekend so hopefully we can get some more answers about this topic moving forward!

Not really, since track doesn't bring the $$ like football, basketball and baseball
