A couple of weeks ago, I invited you to vote in our CatchItKansas.com poll on whether Kansas high schools should be allowed to play more basketball games.
KSHSAA currently caps the regular season at 20 games. With playoffs, a state championship team will play 25-28 games, depending on classification.
Its much higher in nearby states. In Missouri it's 30 games; in Texas 35-36.
In our poll, 68.3 percent favored more games, and 31.7 percent wanted to maintain the regular season cap at 20 games.
A basketball mom in our office offered this interpretation of the results: The 31.7 percent who oppose a longer season are probably parents who are worn out from going to watch their kids play as often as they do now. The 68.3 percent who want more games are probably the kids who just want to play as often as they can.
