We have the same problem here with our Catholic high schools, and our new magnet, and charter, high schools. No district boundaries. These schools do belong to our state interscholastic athletic association and do participate in our state tournament. They aren't allowed to recruit based on athletic ability (wink, wink). Every year someone suggests that they have their own tournament division, outside the normal divisions based on school population. This suggestion never seems to go any where.

Exactly. The kids I saw yesterday are probably better than any combination of kids I'll see the rest of the year.

And I bet the traditional public high schools "unofficially" complain about them recruiting and having no boundaries all the time.
