Classless Running
I live in Indiana and do cross country. Not really good but it makes me mad that Indiana is the only state in the country (I think could be wrong) that does classless running. If you don’t know what I mean I mean that instead of the usual 1A vs 1A schools when sectionals come around its 1A v 2A v 3A v 4A v 5A. I think it’s stupid because there are big schools like Carmel who have like hundred kids on their team but a team in 1A that has 7. Which gives Carmel the chance to swap their lineups every week with a new 7 runners all rested while the 1A school runs their 7 every week. I just don’t think it gives the smaller schools a chance to win anything with running against bigger schools. I don’t mind running against big schools in the season because it’s good for competition but when sectionals come around I think it should be 1A v 1A instead of 1A v 2A v 3A v 4A v 5A. I would like to hear your some opinions about this topic. Maybe I’m wrong and I have no idea what I’m talking about who knows.
