If the high school basketball season ended today, where teams would go for playoffs
If the Kansas high school basketball season ended today, where would your favorite team be headed for the postseason?
Varsity Kansas has updated sub-state standings for every local Wichita-area boys and girls team in every class and has projected where each team would go if the season ended at this point.
Remember, these are not final pairings and only the projected schedule for teams with as many as five games still left on the schedule entering Monday. The majority of the records were updated from the results uploaded to the KSHSAA website.
