Good question. I suspect they shifted them around to minimize travel.
Moving Myrtle Beach up to 5A created a 6 team region in Horry county. If they had remained in 4A all of their region opponents would have been 1 to 2 hours away.
Moving North Augusta down to 4A created a 5 team region in Aiken county. If they had remained 5A all of their region opponents would 1 to 1.5 hours away.
Moving May River down to 4A created a 6 team region in the Low Country. If they had remained in 5A all of their region opponents would be 1:45 to 2 hours away.
I have no idea why they skipped over 4 larger schools and pulled Catawba Ridge up to 5A. Moving them to 5A, to create a 7 team region, only leaves 3 schools with football from York to Lancaster in 4A. I had to pull in Camden, RNE and AC Flora to create a 7 school region with 6 football teams.

Those regions aren't official, just my best guess.BEAUFORTEAGLESFAN wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 3:33 pmI love that Beaufort is moving back up to 4A. I also love their new 4A Region with Bishop England, Bluffton, Colleton County, Hilton Head, and May River.
Yes, but that is how most of the media has that Region. But, I do know that it can change. I heard that Bishop England appealed. So we will see.SF Band dad wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 5:14 pmThose regions aren't official, just my best guess.BEAUFORTEAGLESFAN wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 3:33 pmI love that Beaufort is moving back up to 4A.
