A couple of observations. Forest Hill did not move up to 7A as some thought they may. They are 6A at least for the next couple of years.

St. Andrews and Pisgah moved up to 3A.

Presbyterian Christian is rated as 3A region 8 with St Patrick, St Stanislaus, Tylertown and West Marion.

Couple of interesting swaps. Tupelo goes to district 1 with Oxford moving to district 2 in 7A. Assume Murrah is no longer independent with 7 teams in district 4 and 6 (including Murrah) in district 2. In 6A, George Co goes to district 3 with Pearl River Central to district 4.

also, in 5A not sure why Sumrall is in district 3 & Northeast Jones in district 4.

George County in 3 had been speculated by some folks— but I wonder about that too.

I suspect 3-5A went with the five closest South schools to Natchez.

Wild that PCS improved its travel situation but not by a ton and certainly not as much as they could have in 3A with Magee, Crystal Springs, and Seminary all nearby.

Wonder if they wanted Oxford to be in the same district as Starkville High? Otherwise I’m really not sure why you change that. Oxford is a little closer than Tupelo to the Desoto County schools.

You had 3 schools in Jones County in 5a and they split them up. Could have put them with Wayne County, and then Sumrall. The entire district would have have been less than an hour between furthest schools.

Yeah, I don’t understand switching Tupelo and Oxford. In football, Tupelo will not be challenged in the division, cake walk.
