I agree 100% also. But it would take an act of God to get the NDHSAA to make any changes to Class B. They are afraid of the Privates and they are afraid of killing the "golden calf" (State Class B). If anyone mentions Class B and you think of Bismarck, Fargo, Minot or Dickinson, there is a problem.

This may be the time to make the switch, though. With no boys state B last season and if the attendance looks anything like the girls B this year, the "golden calf" is gone and may take years to recover if ever.
I feel if they went to three classes with boys/girls held at the same time/place for each division, it would require very little changes to make the tournaments run and there would be a ton of interest with each division.

Tickets were sold on a per-game basis. They did quite well, financially, at the State B girls.

Ya, the activities association definitely took advantage of the class B fans. If you wanted to go to every game and bought a walk up ticket it would have cost you 240 to attend all 12 games. The schools were sold tickets to their 3 games only, 48 dollars for the set of 3. If you did buy the sets of all 12 tickets (they had the two middle sections available) it have cost you 100 dollars after all of the fees.

How do we go about getting it fixed? Schools will not vote for it unless it benefits them. Schools in Region 3, and 5 won't vote for it. Region 8 won't vote for it anymore now that Watford City is class A.

Or is the ability to get at least 50% of "Sweet 16" right prepopulating those spots with the same 20 schools year after year...
Teams vs Schools????
