...Just a sidebar note...This is a great link to bookmark if you want to take a look at the 9th-12th grade enrollment figures for Minnesota high schools. This is the figure that was used to determine what class of playoff sections a school is assigned to. B-B-E's figure is 213 students enrolled in the top-four grades (based on figures from earlier this academic year). It actually represents a small dip from the last re-classification period, where B-B-E had 219 enrolled. Fortunately, it was just enough of a dip to allow the basketball teams to get back into Class A.
Enough of my rambling...here's the link: http://mshsl.org/mshsl/enrollments09.asp
