That migration SOUTH stops at ST. RD 2, if not before.

RCHS is almost under 400 studets. I think 418 or something like that

North Newton went from 2A to 1a and not getting any bigger

KV under 1000

Griffith makes the most sense. 4A school in a 4A conference.

I never quite understood why Stacey Adams decided to leave the NCC. Griffith was competitive in most of the Boys sports not so much in the girls. Was it done for girls sports? Someone refresh my memory.

I mean they haven’t been good since the 80s. Radtke consolidating Griffith/Highland pop warner in the 90s killed Highland football more or less. Demographic shifts exacerbating the issue now. Obviously Hobart ran it up quite a bit on them too.

KV is pretty much the same case as Highland of not being decent since the 80s and demographic shifts causing further issues.

Munster is the one that is really the head scratcher. Everything just hit the fan when Marsh retired. Not sure if that was on him/admin/his assistants or some combination. But Munster football was always solid, maybe not great, but respectable. What’s happened in the last 10 years is sad to see.
Highland had a nice couple years in the late 90’s with the Boyd’s, Havens, Beard, etc..
That ‘99 sectional game with Lowell was one for the ages.

Munster, not there yet, but IMO has made great strides in last two years from where they were.

KV seems like an uphill battle for no matter who’s in position.


Munsters great strides

Sagarin ratings.

Current 43
2024 34
2023 40
2022 37
2021 38

Their best win is a 3 point win over KV which Jimbo says isnt even a top 20 job in the area.

Ranked 'em 19th to be fair. Lol they'd be 20th if I included Rensselaer.
