Baby Needs A New Pair Of Shoes ...

Here in Connecticut, all regular season, and conference/league championships ended last week. Girls started state tournament games last week. Boys will start state tournament games this week. New twist this year. State finals for both boys, and girls, in all classes (school size), will be held at the Mohegan Sun Casino, in the 10,000 seat Mohegan Sun Arena, home of the WNBA Connecticut Sun.

The next two weekends will be the Boy's State Finals. This weekend coming up is the 1A-2A Finals. The following week the 3A-4A State Finals. So there is still some basketball to play.

Peace

Which definition of provincial are you referring to:
Of or relating to a province.
Of or characteristic of people from the provinces; not fashionable or sophisticated.
Limited in perspective; narrow and self-centered.

Provincial would be me when referring to "not fashionable".

Ontario has 4 levels of ball: 1A to 4A. Two cities on opposite ends of the province are Ottawa and Windsor. Ottawa was 3A and Windsor 4A. Those cities are about 9 hours apart. Too bad for those coaches wishing to scout both tournaments: they'll need extra help this year.

Also, YW for the vid.

Texas girls' state tourney was this weekend. Boys is next. We've got some camps and other tournaments/leagues (non-school related) starting pretty soon after that, but other than a couple of those, I'm enjoying the down time and starting to think football.

Girls (4 Divisions) play Thur-Sat next weekend

Boys (4 Divisions) play Thur-Sat the following weekend.

However, the state athletic association (WIAA) has had a cow (pun intended) about broadcasting rights. They have even went as far as to claim that the athletes are "employees" of the WIAA.

NV played it's State tournament in Vegas this year. All of the championship games for both boys and girls were held at the Orleans Arena on the same floor that the WCC is using this week for its conference tournament. If you check ESPN and ESPN2 this week you can get a look at the venue.
