What IHSAA sectional assignments mean for East Central Indiana teams

Earlier this week, the Indiana High School Athletic Association approved sectional assignments for boys and girls basketball, football, boys and girls soccer and volleyball.

Enrollment figures didn't play a role in the reclassification. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the IHSAA voted to "freeze enrollment numbers for one year," meaning teams that meet the tournament success factor criteria will be the only ones moving up or down a class.

In East Central Indiana, that had no impact on boys and girls soccer, boys basketball or football teams. It did, however, see a few area volleyball teams move up or stay up a class and one girls basketball team move down a class.
