Changes Could Be On The Way For State Basketball Tournament

The state basketball tournament could be undergoing some significant changes within the next several years.  Declining attendance remains a concern, and basically everything is on the table says the IHSA’s Kurt Gibson.

And Gibson says even the four-class system could get some discussion if that’s what the members want.

Gibson says the dividing line of the four-classes may be the bigger issue—moving away from percentage and going to fixed numbers for cutoffs.  Among other ideas being explored is playing all championship games on the same weekend.
