Brent,

Turning this back on you, can you illustrate the disproportionate number of State championships that you cite?

Sure there have been runs like BC Wrestling from 2002 through 2008, but that was a reflection of just a rare pool of talent no different that Hutch's current domination of football. Our place at the State tournament this year illustrates that we have run through that talent for the time being.

At times, there are talented schools, just happens that way.

I do feel that that there is one advantage private schools have, motivation. As Will states, when parents are making the sacrifices to get their kids this opportunity, they tend to be very involved. That is a great form of motivation for the students, and in my opinion can (but not always) drive a higher level of achievement.
