With OHSAA just approving 7 divisions, this is what I figured up for the breakdown for Girls Basketball, based on this year's numbers and using the number guidelines they had on their presentation slides!

Thanks for sharing, appears to line up to what our football team falls under.

I understand it to be that D1 and D2 will have 64 teams each with the remaining 5 divisions being split as equally as possible.

If that’s accurate, on your master list of enrollment figures (768 teams) the divisions would break down something like this due to ties in the enrollment figures.

Obviously, this will change with final enrollment figures or shifting a team or two to up or down a division.

D1: 64 teams: Mason (1251) to Mount Notre Dame (571)
D2: 64 teams: Westerville North (570) to Barberton (415)
D3: 128 teams: Sylvania Southview (411) to Buchtel (267)
D4: 126 teams: Maumee (266) to Carlisle (192)
D5: 130 teams: Laurel (191) to Greenview (136)
D6: 127 teams: Nelsonville York (135) to Plymouth (93)
D7: 129 teams: Hiland (92) to St Joseph Central (13)

I am interested to see how this pans out.
It’s been a topic of conversation around the Southwest region for a while because there is such a huge gap between the schools in Division I. I definitely understand the need for especially Div I to get busted up a little since you have schools like Mason, Fairfield, Hamilton, and Lakota East where there are over 1,000 students in the same division as schools like Ross, Turpin, Mt Healthy, and Northwest with around 1/4 of that enrollment.
