This is an article about what the Northwest District Athletic Board is doing to some of the schools it supposedly represents.

Division III cross country coaches' plea falls on the deaf ears of NWDAB

“If you have one race, you are guaranteed to have the top individuals and top teams from that day,” Seneca East coach Matt Schock said.

I understand that it might be behind a pay wall for some but it is still worth me sharing it. This was published on 10/14/20. Another article was published this morning.

How is there a part 2 to this story? It's cut and dry. Black and White.

The NEDAB does not always do what is in the best interest of it's own athletes, so I'm not surprised. Although, as I get older, I can see that not everyone agrees with what I think is best. I don't see the other side to this story, but I guess there is one. Not even a single coach with a different view is rare. This should be a no brainer.

I agree all the coaches running in the district race have wanted this for a few years and it has fallen on deaf ears. Here is the link to the second part of the story.

Here is the third part of the story.

There is still time to 'do what is right' for Galion District cross country meet

Is it that easy? Can the NWDAB simply change it on the fly and go straight to one race? In a simple answer, yes.
