Posted by Benjamin Button on 1/27/2025, 9:08 pm

How big is the state bracket? How many qualifiers from each district?

Does anyone know how many from each region? Top 5 or is each region different?

WIAA provides each WIAA district with an allocation.

For instance, WIAA District 3 4A gets 11 spots to state. But those 11 have to be distributed between two leagues - NPSL and SPSL.

Similarly, District 3 2A gets 9 spots to state. But those 9 have to be distributed between two leagues - SPSL and Olympic leagues.

It's easy to figure out how many spots each WIAA district gets, but information is not readily available regarding how those spots are distributed inside the district among the leagues.

I assume each WIAA district has their own method, memo's, emails that establish that.

Kids might know, and hopefully the coaches.

Knowing how many spots each District gets is, in many cases, not very useful information.

The real question is: How is your WIAA District going to distribute their allocation?

This could vary.

You may have a case where a WIAA district holds two league championships to establish 8 of their hypothetical 9 entries. It could be top 4 placers from each of two league tournaments.

That leaves one more spot. Then the District could hold an additional tournament the next week, the winner of that tournament gets the last spot and goes to the Dome.

I don't think there is a Rosetta stone for this readily available and posted online.

I'm pretty certain that the 3A state tournament is a 40 man bracket and the 3A NPSL league is getting 5(maybe 6) births into the tournament.

Sounds about right.

WIAA District 3 gets 12 total for 3A boys

Split between two leagues:

NPSL (9 team league) & PSL (12 team league)

I would bet on 5 for NPSL
