East Columbus v Robbinsville. My goodness. I live in Wilmington, midway between the river and the beach and it’s only 41 miles to East Columbus. They are not very good. It’s 375 to Robbinsville. At least they get to see some mountains.
I hate it when they do this. It is so unfair for the traveling team. Conversely, I like the idea of a non regional playoff system, like the WNBA. Just seed teams and let them play each other, no matter where they're located. And the NCHSAA should pay for the gas. I know it would never ever happen. But to put just one or two schools in that situation is remarkably unfair. And the fact that EC wouldn't have even made the NIT if this was the NCAA tourney makes it worse.

Even worse on school nights. Already we had Eno River Academy travel to Hayesville (300+miles) on a Tuesday in the soccer playoffs. Hayesville then had to go on the road all the way to Gray Stone Day the following Thursday (250 miles) and then Murphy also visited Gray Stone Day for another 250+ mile trip on the next Monday. 500-mile round trips on school nights are just unworkable, if you expect kids to go to school and coaches to work the next day.

I'm liking an all Traditional public school state title.
