[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]GP no longer cares if they are in the IAC or not. The IAC is essentially dead anyway. Hockey is down to 3/4. Football is down to 3/4, basketball is completely split. It's a dead league.[/quote]

I agree. The IAC is definitely fading; I expect the league to be gone in 5 years or look dramatically different.

Saint Stephen's dropped out of the conference for football entirely and rumors going around they might drop out of the league entirely. Where they go, maybe the MAC? Episcopal might leave entirely and focus solely on competing with its VISAA counterparts, since the Maroons currently compete in two leagues.

Perhaps GP becomes a full-fledged member of the WCAC, but the larger GP community thinks their academics are too holy to be associated with the likes of DeMatha, SJC, or a Bishop McNamara etc, etc. Prep has outgrown the IAC, and they know this. And their recent emphasis on recruiting aggressively to fill their dorms with athletes further illustrates this.

Landon, Bullis and STA will likely stick together, where they end up, who the hell knows!

I think long term will end up with Prep to the WCAC and then the rest of the IAC (outside of Episcopal) combines with the MAC to form something like the girls ISL with A and AA divisions.

So lacrosse could have something like

AA - Landon, Bullis, STA, SSSAS, Potomac and whoever of SAES or St. James is better in a given year.

A - Sidwell, Maret, Flint Hill, Georgetown Day, and SAES/St. James

Or basketball would be something like:

AA - Sidwell, Bullis, SAES, Maret, Flint Hill
A - Landon, Potomac, STA, GDS, St. James, SSSAS

That would lead to a lot more competitive games across all sports probably. But there’s a lot of inertia to overcome so could be years before it happens [/quote]
