Predicting 2025 MO TF Class and District Alignments


Each year, MSHSAA reworks the Class and District alignments in Track and Field alignments based on new enrollment data and the still fairly new Championship Factor. Each year, coaches on the borderline anxiously await the mid-March release date to find out whether or not they are moving up, down, or staying put. Each year, there are coaches wondering if they may end up in District 7 or District 4. Each year, some coaches are left scratching their heads at some of the decisions that were made. 

Once again this year, we decided to take a look at enrollment numbers and Championship Factor movement and take a crack at how the Classes and Districts may shake out. We also mentioned some of the top athletes in each district. These athletes meet the MileSplit US Second Team standard in at least one event, or were milliseconds off.

You can click through the following quick links to see the Class and District Assignments as we predict how they all land.

Overall, our predictions for the Enrollment breaks are as follows: 

Class 5: 985+

Class 4: 497-977

Class 3: 247-494

Class 2: 120-246

Class 1: 11-119

NOTE: This should by no means be taken as a fact. There is a possibility that there was an error in calculation or interpretation of the guidelines or a need to adjust placements for hosting needs that MSHSAA accounts for and we missed in our calculations. This should only be taken at face value and not as the final assignments. The final, official assignments will come out on March 21st.
