BOYS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT PLAY BEGINS TONIGHT

Sectional tournament play begins tonight for area boys basketball teams, and the Northeast district athletic board has put a twist into the first two rounds of postseason play.  In division I, for example, the Canton and Copley districts have been blended to create a 28 team super district, and all 28 teams were seeded.

The top two teams, Jackson and Lake, had to choose opposite district sites, but the remaining teams could place themselves into either district bracket. This format will remain in place for two seasons before being evaluated. Reaction to the new format has been generally positive, although opinions vary on the subject.
