Could one problem be the 180-mile rule? Without this, a decision like this one wouldn't have such implications. Let me be clear that this wasn't my call, but St. Joe's made the decision. I'll happily take the home game, but understand the other side of the issue as well. I also understand why the rule is in place...but could it be one of the problems here?




Ofcourse St. Joe's wanted to make this decision. It does nothing but help them. The third spot in that region is absolutely better than the second because it allows them to be on the same side of the bracket as Cardinal Newman and opposite of Pinewood. They also get to rest on Saturday when the team they are going to be playing on Tuesday is going to be playing.
