NEB GIRLS STATE BASKETBALL BRACKETS SET

NSAAThe brackets and schedules are set for the Nebraska high school girls state basketball tournament, which gets underway Thursday in Lincoln.

The 48 teams in this year’s tournament will play their first-round games at 4 locations: the Bob Devaney Sports Center, Pershing Coliesum, Lincoln East High School, and Lincoln Northeast High School.

The semifinals will be at Devaney Center and Pershing on Friday, with Saturday’s championship games at Devaney and the third place games at Lincoln East and Lincoln Northeast. This expected to be the final year the Pershing is used, with the new Pinnacle Bank arena scheduled to be open by next year’s tournament.

Only one Panhandle team made the tournament this year — Chadron,  who was the top seed in Class C1.  The 22-2 Cardinals will open with Lincoln Christian Thursday night at 7:00 at Pershing.

The other western Nebraska to qualify for state are McCook in Class B, Hershey and North Platte St Pats in C2, Sutherland in D1, and Sandhills-Thedford and Wauneta-Palisade in D2.

Tickets for each session are $7 for adults and $5 for students (age 5 through high school) and can be purchased at the door or on-line at https://nsaahome.ticketleap.com/.
