For the most part, everything is finally set in stone and if you\u2019re a junkie for tourney time, the next 10 days will keep you busy.<\/p>\n
The varsity tournament\u2019s format has changed a handful of times through the years and the 2025-26 season will see another revision.<\/p>\n
For the first time, there will be a two-game, play-in round for the last four seeds (11 through 14). The new setup gives the top four seeds \u2014 in this case Susan Wagner, St. Peter\u2019s, Monsignor Farrell and St. Joseph by-the-Sea \u2014 a double bye.<\/p>\n
The \u201cFirst Four\u2019s\u201d two winners advance to a second round of four play-in games. Those who emerge victorious from those second-round contests will then move on to meet to the top four seeds in the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n
In addition, the championship games will see a minor change this season. For the first time, the freshman and junior varsity title games will be played back to back on the same night.<\/p>\n
Since the tourney\u2019s inception during the 1992-93 season, the JV title game has traditionally played before the varsity contest on the same night. But this season, the varsity championship will be played by itself.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a look at the entire schedule for the SIHSL Tournament\u2019s varsity, JV and freshman divisions (remember: dates, times and venues are always subject to change).<\/p>\n
