The region can't subdivide because it has just eight schools, which means Lee County will drive an average of 78 miles for every region game that it plays. After several teams in the north Fulton County area were split up the last time lines were drawn, a lawsuit against the GHSA followed to put the group back together. Although the North Fulton group lost that battle, they have won the war by being rejoined. Under the current lines, some schools just miles apart from former region foes were forced to face rush hour traffic to travel into Atlanta for games. In the world of Georgia high school sports, there is little more exciting than reclassification years.
Some schools move up or down a class.
New schools are created, and some schools are disbanded or consolidated. It is a rebirth that occurs every two years. This is the year and now is the time. While things are not completely final, the proposed region alignments are in but things are far from final. Maybe it's too soon to be talking about what will happen in the season after the upcoming school year, which is still about two months ago, but I don't think so.
