NSAA passes single-gender classification for sports

[Alum-Ni]

The NSAA Representative Assembly today passed using single-gender enrollment figures to classify all sports except for track and cross country. It passed by a vote of 49-2. Now sports like basketball, volleyball, golf, etc. (except track and cross country) will classify like football did this year and base enrollment figures strictly on a single gender.

The Assembly today also rejected, by a vote of 32-19, making bowling a sanctioned sport in the NSAA.

So does the board vote on this then and when would it go into effect?

Does anyone have a guess on what the classes would look like next year for boys basketball?

Divide up the other 4 evenly.

Here’s a link to the enrollments they’ll use.

I really pray the NSAA doesn't take the football enrollment cutoff numbers and move them to basketball and the like. Have 23 teams in class B is completely ridiculous. Lets limit that stupidity to football and not pass it on to the other sports please.

If they use the football cutoff those numbers won't be right.

They’re not using FB numbers for “cutoffs”. Classification will be done the same way, except using male enrollments.

Class A for basketball should be bigger than 28. Doesn't it just make sense to do 32 and 32 for A and B hoops?

I think 36 and 36 would even be appropriate. Divide the remaining up into three classes.
