Re: Ohio going to Districts?

Hopefully they would include West Virginia and even western PA. With everyone around us speculating about going to districts, if nobody includes us that isolates us from any close events.

Out of curiosity, where would those teams compete if everyone around them is in a district format? Wouldn't not including them make it even more difficult for those teams than it already is? These teams should be included in a nearby district instead of being forced into Canada or a regional 10 hours away. It only further alienates them than they already are.
