U.P. here the Girls' contracts have been sent for 2005-2006. From a sample, it appears that experienced officials have had their varsity schedules halved. (eg, Instead of 20 Girls and 20 Boys, they receive 10 Girls and 10 Boys.) 1st and 2nd year officials are being contracted to work the Girls' Varsity season, while most of the experience will be working Boys Varsity. mick |

I would not expend a lot of energy trying to get Oregon to switch. 48 states or so are aligned the same way and every court across the country that has had a chance to rule on this topic has ruled the "separate but equal" seasons as illegal. I would also disagree with the statement that it was a bunch of judges outside the state that made this decision, The judge that made the initial ruling was from a Michigan Federal district court... Now to play devil's advocate...I would also agree that if Michigan was ranked 45th in population that having the 4th highest participation numbers in the country and 5th highest scholarship rate is pretty good, but when Michigan is #8 in population I am not sure the numbers are significant... |

We here in S E Mi have dates set for Girls ball in the fall. Of course, this will be a mute point if the switch is going to be made. As far as game dates, if the switch is made, some of the conferences(sp) are talking about Girls JV/V on Tue/Fri the first week with Boys JV/V on Wed. They would then switch for the following week. The state also will schedule the girls to start a week earlier, I am sure there is someone out there that will correct me if I am wrong, so the also can use the Brelin Center in East Lansing as the site for the semi's & finals for the state tournament. We play a schedule of 20 games at present. I am told this maybe reduced or add 2 or 3 saturdays into the mix. As of right know its schedule as if we will still be playing in the fall. I'm not holding my breath.... |

You're set for September, and we're set for December. I wonder if any will even remember. I never doubted there were two states of Michigan. Maybe, like Track and Field, The Lower will have there champions and the Upper will have their champions. mick |
