That is true, but that was not a Galesburg crowd. It was clearly fans from both Peoria and Washington (which they are right next to each other BTW). Not to say there were not a good amount of people just watching from Galesburg, but the crowd size was clearly supporting one of the teams in colors they were wearing and chants.

Ninety miles is not that big of an issue if you ask me. When you have teams going 4 hours plus one way to attend their Super-Sectional game that is really not a great thing for the teams. I hope they change the sites or stop having a blind draw for who plays at which Super. Or better yet go back to the 2 class system. I do not see many people happy with this system on many levels.
