BS!!!! Perhaps the reason competitiveness is down, if it is down, is teams getting on the bus to travel to a supposedly better tournament. Something about grass is greener on the other side. Might have happened but don't recall seeing Ark City at the Bobcat or Eudora. Don't recall Tongie or Chanute as a power house teams at the Bobcat. Have seen Garden City, Derby, Andover, Goddard but don't think any of them buried the local competition.
Ark City goes to Newton which is the same weekend as Bobcat. Grand Island goes to both the Council Bluffs tournament and Newton and they are a premier team in Nebraska. Eudora is a good tournament but to call it a tournament that is as tough as Bobcat, Newton, Gardner-Edgerton, or Garden City (all of which host teams from out of state) is pretty ignorant.
