Thanks again,

Actually in most states the StateHSAA determines the game length below the varsity level. NFHS states that a H.S. game is eighty minutes: two 40 min. halves or four 20 min. quarters; in Ohio and Michigan it is two 40 min. halves. OhioHSAA rules are that jr. varsity and freshmen games will be two 36 min. halves and jr. H.S. games will be two 30 min. halves. While MichiganOhioHSAA rules are that jr. varsity and freshmen games will be two 35 min. halves and jr. H.S. games will be four 15 min. quarters.
