District tournament split reshapes Central Carolina playoffs
The district basketball format changes for CCC teams divide them into two paths toward the state playoffs. Top CCC teams join Foot Hills and Guilford County clubs in district 5, with Winston-Salem hosting the final rounds, while 2 through 4 CCC teams join Gaston County and Rocky River for district 6. The shift aims to cut travel, doubles chances, and recalls last year's stumble by CCC clubs.
