MIAA basketball tournament pairings. (updated and corrected)


Here are the MIAA basketball tournament pairings for Divisions 1 and 2 boys and girls, where my broadcasting clients reside. For other divisions, go to www.miaa.net and click on the link to the basketball tournament page. Note that all of these pairings are subject to swift and surprising change. And the best of luck to all of the area's teams!
