There are only 175 "school days" in a school year. See the calendar http://www.bismarck.k12.nd.us/uploads/r ... lendar.pdf
The intent of the 180 rule really is to make players sit out the whole year for an in town transfer. It's pretty darn simple. Thus Minot should be going to state instead of CHS. I doubt the EDC teams are going to look the other way should CHS win any games at State. This should be address by NDHSAA now, the rules should be interpreted as intended to avoid a big hassle at State.

One session of summer school would provide 15 days and that would be enough on the face of it. However I would be nervous to rely on this as I don't believe other NDHSAA criteria allows counting of summer school. For example, if a student is suspended for 6 weeks from extracurricular activities, summer school days do not count. Additionally if a student attended both summer school sessions that would be 30 extra days. Therefore a student could transfer after the school year, attend both summer school sessions, and be eligible for a complete season of any varsity spring sport. I am certain the 180 day rule intends to prevent that. But powers that be are aware now and will act or not as appropriate.
