Which begs the question, how in the world do they have 3 classes?

Tell me about it. I officiated there for one season. Each division has a very small number of teams. Their state brackets are smaller than some conference tourneys. I think to some extent it's to make the state seem more prominent than it really is. Heck, RIIL even sponsors a JV state tourney.

But...in their defense, without divisions you'd have Providence power schools routinely beating up on places like Exeter and some of the small fishing towns on the coast.

BTW, those state games are the only times you'll see 3p crews in RI.
