From the late September WIAA meeting:
and I quote:
"3. Draws will be held on Sunday, February 26, to determine the pairings for the eight-entry Hardwood Classic to be held March 1-3, 2012. The draw criteria will be finalized by November 1.
- This addition to the tournament demonstrates the WIAA Executive Board’s promise to evaluate the total tournament experience of the WIAA state basketball tournaments.
- Eight #1 teams better lends itself to a draw than with the 2011 format.
- A draw will add a new level of excitement for the state tournament for the participants, coaches, media, and fans.
- Coaches, administrators, players, and media will have the chance to meet on the Sunday prior to the state tournament.
- Tournament managers will be able to cover specific site information and distribute parking and entrance passes.
- Webcasting of the draw is being explored.
- Because there will be twelve total draws, two classification draws will be conducted simultaneously. Therefore, the draws will not be conducted at the WIAA office. Other sites are being considered."
Quoted because you just can't make this stuff up.
Really? #1 on their list.....
"This addition to the tournament demonstrates the WIAA Executive Board’s promise to evaluate the total tournament experience of the WIAA state basketball tournaments."---- Soooo the added 'experience' of a maybe webcast draw for eight teams totally fixs everything....
ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man, you just can't make this stuff up! Mike "McCheese" Colbrese I think has earned the raise he got.
Hey, maybe if we complain enough about still having the boys and girls playing in different cities next year the WIAA will provide halftime pony rides! Ooo ooo or do the draw by cake walk!
