Coming up this Thursday Evening we are coming down on the second final night of WIAA Girls Basketball games in the State of Wisconsin before the State Tournament in Green Bay next weekend at the Resch Center.
As of Wednesday Evening, many teams have already played their final games last Saturday already in terms of the WIAA Girls Basketball Playoffs.
If you are not familiar with High School Hoops in Wisconsin one unique thing is every team makes

Why could some Sectional Final Games Moved Locations?
When it comes to WIAA Playoff Games the Sectional Games are not supposed to have a home team play at their own High School as this is around meant for Neutral Games.
Featured earlier in this article you likely saw some sectionals have bold red text involved saying if a certain team won you can expect the game to move locations and that is to do with a home team potentially playing at home in a sectional final.
