Boys postseason basketball assignments will be released later moving forward

(IHSAA) The Board of Control approved recommendations out of the basketball advisory committee to eliminate the early release of substate and district pods and their associated coach seeding meetings starting in 2023. In their place, IHSAA staff will compile and release brackets for the lead-up rounds and the state tournament.

“We appreciate the advisory committee and leadership from the Iowa Basketball Coaches Association being proactive with this adjustment,” IHSAA assistant director and basketball administrator Todd Tharp said. “Pushing back the release dates will allow us to gather as much information as possible from regular season games and complete improved postseason assignments. We want to be responsive to our advisory committee and head coaches with their concerns regarding assignments and seeding meetings.”

Brackets for Class 2A and Class 1A would be slated for release during Week 32 (Feb. 6, 2023) of the NFHS calendar, and Class 4A and Class 3A during Week 33 (Feb. 13, 2023). Last season, district and substate assignments – prior to seeding meetings and brackets – were released starting Jan. 21.
