Talk:1951 NAIA Men's Basketball District Regionals

I'm not sure that there was a District 27, as that would have implied that there was a Tennessee-only district. But there were playoffs that involved teams from AL, MS and TN before 1951. I don't know how you would handle this Jon, but I think there should be a combined District 19-27 slot for 1951. Howard, 19:23, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

• My rationale here was that District 19 WAS represented in every year up until the district was reassigned to Pennsylvania. I think the best thing to do is openly acknowledge our confusion on the matter until we have something more concrete. Jon 19:37, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
  • What about District 24 then(which subsequently became Kentucky's district)? Howard, 19:39, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
    • Yeah, I don't know. Great point. The real hitch in the mechanism is that all three districts were represented in 1952, but 24 disappeared for a year in '53. If one of them hadn't been, the answer would be obvious. I wonder if one of the three (Memphis State, Murray State, Southern Miss) was actually an at-large invitee in 1952...?

Another thing that I've discovered, there's a conflict with the dates for the District 25 playoffs. I've chosen to leave them blank for the moment.
