Raider you may want to go to ohsaa.org and check those numbers again. Trimble went up because of its emis numbers and not competitive balance. Its all on the website and tells you why they went up. Says up emis and not up cb.
Trimble’s EMIS is 113. D7 cut off is 116. After CB Trimble’s is 121. Should be pretty close but likely D6 again. I don’t really understand that stuff of to the side that says CB and EMIS but also talks about the year before. So Trimble could be D6 in base enrollment when they first set divisions but then could be D7 after CB is added in
The “floor” of D7, as in however many teams at the lowest end of D7 continue playing 11-man from 2019 into 2020 as well as any additions, may play a role in where the schools straddling the D6/D7 boundary land next year. If there’s fewer D7 teams toward the bottom, then the ceiling of D7 would probably expand by however many drop out. Say that there’s three teams that fall out of D7 completely, then I imagine two or three previously D6 schools slot down. But then again I’m not sure how the OHSAA is going to approach it because some schools don’t announce they’re playing 8-man until after the divisional breakdowns are set. Last year was the first of this general transition to 8-man for some schools.
I may not be totally correct, or correct at all. This may be a question for Pol pot.
