The final day of the playoffs had as many as 24 regional finals taking place and the winners of those matches booked their places to this year’s state tournament with the four regional champions of each of the state’s six classes advancing.
Three teams that lifted the state trophies last year will return and make an attempt to defend their titles – Bushland on Class 3A, Decatur on 4A and Lucas Lovejoy on 5A.
Classes 1A and 2A will be the first to start competing in the state tournament with their semifinals set for Wednesday. State champions will be determined over the course of three days with Class 1A determining its winner on Thursday, Class 2A crowing a new champion on Friday and Classes 3A, 4A, 5A and 6A doing the same on Saturday.
