I agree. I think they need to look to bigger leagues or they’ll be left without a home soonthe pond is going to change, with or without them.
Can you please delete your account. You are embarrassing everyone from Wapak with your posts. It would be different if you were at least funny, now it’s just annoying.I hope our little brother joins the WBL it would be fun to get a guaranteed victory every year like the good old days
well that won’t happenAlways kind of thought the BVC and NWCC should combine in some way, along with the Wyandot County schools
Didn’t say it was. Just matchups of Ridgemont, Arcadia, North Baltimore would be beneficial to each other. I think that would be better than Liberty Benton beating NB and Cory Rawson by 40+ like they did in 2019.well that won’t happen
I like Jonathan Alder as long as they don't hit a Columbus metro period of booming enrollment growth. Could care less if they are near the top of if not the best in nearly every sport. They are effectively an equal or better replacement to Tippecanoe without the Tipp arrogance and cockiness they made most of the CBC schools hate them.i think the Clark County schools enjoy playing in Plain City and Alder would probably be happy playing in a league with the Clark, Madison, and Greene County schools. the Champaign/Logan/Union County schools in the area would form a league.
Yes they do but how long will the BVC be around? Plus LB only going to keep getting bigger while all the schools in BVC other than VB are going to keep getting smaller. Unlikely Vanlue will have football next year and CR may soon follow them.LB enjoys being a very big fish in a very, very small pond
Kenton would be about 2 hours by bus, not a chance. Greenville is in the right spot.Greenville would be the other option for WBL, but not sure they would do that.
This seems more realistic than the proposed alignment in the TRAC threadi heard from a reliable source on what the new league would look like after the realignment: PossiblY the new NLL.

Archbold is at a decline in student enrollment in the last few years. Swanton, if anything leaves before archbold, especially cause of location and they have more student than archbold.One more school in the smaller school tier.
What happens to a good school athletic school like Archbold in something like this?
Remember that school boards have to vote on this. I heard that the old guard at defiance is very much against this citing “wbl tradition.”i heard from a reliable source on what the new league would look like after the realignment: PossiblY the new NLL.

I've been saying this on here for as many times as I can. As a Lima native and Senior High alum, the WBL will NEVER allow Lima Senior to compete for WBL titles / join the league. NEVER.I think the WBL would just have 9 teams. I would be shocked if Lima Senior or LCC joined
that’s what outta conference games are for?If Perrysburg ever wants to go anywhere in the postseason in football, linking with Whitmer, Findlay, and Ross is something they have to do. The same with Anthony Wayne if they have enough potential growth in their district to grow into the lower end of D1 for football. The current construction of the NLL has many positives, but preparing a football team for the D1 playoffs is not one of them.
OOC games are only so much of the schedule, and you have to find teams willing to play you. also, you play you conference games closer to the playoffs so closer preparation. it can only hurt a team to go into the playoffs playing cupcake opponents the prior 3 weeks.that’s what outta conference games are for?
I imagine they will be in the OCC eventually, but I feel like I've been hearing about exponential growth for several years out there and it hasn't happened yet. I believe in the current enrollment count that London is bigger than Alder.In 5 years Jonathan Alder will be an OCC size school and will likely want to stay around the Central District as much as possible. CBC is a stepping stone for them until they are large enough and have an opportunity to join the OCC. The only thing that would slow that down is a potential school split (highly unlikely since they recently built a new HS). That area is growing exponentially and still has quite a bit of land to develop.
they need more housing developments in the area. but there is certainly room for more.In 5 years Jonathan Alder will be an OCC size school and will likely want to stay around the Central District as much as possible.

No, they will not be an OCC size school in five years. They are a looooong ways from the OCC. Growing area, yes, but there are many challenges to that development. And if you look at the demographics of the growth, it's younger people moving with younger children. The HS won't see that impact for quite a while. Remember, they are just a few kids from Division IV in football. Alder and London are within a few kids of each other from an athletic count number.In 5 years Jonathan Alder will be an OCC size school and will likely want to stay around the Central District as much as possible.

Yes, room for many more and lots of plans, but a massive utility issue.they need more housing developments in the area. but there is certainly room for more.
Disappointing that the Catholic schools won't be in. Central is a power in football. But other than that there is no clear dominant Catholic school in anything. SJJ has good basketball but is not absolutely dominant. St. Francis was winless a few years ago in football. AW and PBurg are dominant in girls soccer. Clay is the best girls soccer program in the TRAC. Very disappointing that all of the schools cannot get together. Also, why not include the Toledo City League? It's not a good look if all of the public schools in the area want to form a league but somehow want to avoid the inner city schools.i heard from a reliable source on what the new league would look like after the realignment: PossiblY the new NLL.
