I don't think it's Tom's first rodeo, but that doesn't make it any less of an accomplishment.

WTG, Tom.

Out of curiosity, what's the enrollment range of a D-1 school in Nevada?

To those who asked: the favorites to be in this boys final are Canyon Springs of north Las Vegas and Bishop Gorman.
CS is public and has an enrollment of just over 2600 although under the current NV system any school over 1200 is put in D1. There are currently four divisions. There has been talk of creating a fifth for the biggest schools, perhaps over 1800 or 2000 but that hasn't happened yet.
Gorman is private and has won the State championship for the past few years. Maxpreps ranks them 20th in the country.

I didn't think there were enough schools in Nevada to have 5 divisions. I lived in Vegas from '93-98, I wouldn't be surprised if somebody were to say the number of high schools in the Vegas Valley has doubled since that time.

BTW, that was well before my officiating days, I was one of the Wreck players tomegun was officiating back then.

I was going to supply the link but Nevada beat me to it.

Yeah, nobody had to do their hair last night. I did however look substantially different than the other two.

My apologies...I read the initial post too quickly. IMO, that only enhances the honor.
