When did you work the State Finals here in IL? I went 2 years ago in 3-4A and I am going back this year. Great experience that is for sure.

Yea the competition is definitely watered down. There is a local team that was roughly .500 on the season and was 5 points shy in the Super Sectional to making it to State.

I have worked 3 State Finals in football (08', 11') and in baseball (09') but not basketball.

It may be watered down a little but no one in the country had 2 classes. Not surprised it was changed.
