Recently, the IHSAA used a committee in several team sports to come up with the sectional grouping for fall and winter team sports.Those sports - football, boys soccer, girls soccer, volleyball, boys basketball, and girls basketball - will start the sectional round of the IHSAA state tournament series in October for fall sports, late January for girls basketball, and late February for boys basketball.
