The Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA) said last week that the post-season format will change, keeping the first and second rounds within individual districts, instead of across district lines as has been the case for many years. Additionally, the third- and fourth-round pairings would be set by a Ratings Power Index (RPI), a computer formula based largely on strength of schedule. The third round would keep teams in their geographic area, but the fourth round – the state semifinals – could mean distant east-west travel.
Rocket football coach Sean Thompson is not a fan of some of the changes. Read more in the January 24, 2019 printed edition of The Crittenden Press what the coach has to say about it and what these and other changes will mean for the Rocket football team.
