Legal Action against LHAC

[LeeCorso]

If the bishops are done does the LHAC move to an 18 team conference and realign? Or do Windber and Berlin get reconsidered?

I’ve long been in favor of the wpial model. Put all of 5/6 in one mega conference. Divide it by classification. Leave one week open to maintain any rivalries. Only schedule schools in your division or 1 above/below outside of the open week.

That is a great idea, but one would have to consider the travel costs. District 6 has to be one of the, if not the, largest district area wise I would think? Think past football, thats a lot of long nights Volleyball, Basketball, Baseball, Softball, and other sports have to endure throughout a week, plus ya know, schooling. At the end of the day there is definitely a need for some sort of conference realignment. A lot of shrinking school districts in this area. But then again if you want the play only your district route, the rest of D5 schools would start bawling and crying that they would have to play Bedford, Chestnut Ridge, and Somerset in the regular season.

Not to stray from the point of the original post, but rumour is McCort hired a big time Attorney from Pittsburgh to take up the case that deals in the fine arts of Civil Rights.

Travel would be the biggest hill to overcome but I think there are enough 1A and 2A schools that geography could play in division alignment at those levels. Agreed though on the look past football part, lots of factors come into play when you start adding the non football schools in to different sports. It would take a lot of planning and discussion to ever even be considered.

. The Altoona Mirror article explains this whole situation in great detail. It can be found in the Altoona Mirror Feb. 5, under local news, titled Bishop M sues LHAC.' I would download it, but not sure how to do it. Maybe a forum member might.
