Board Abandons Iowa Gage Meet
Des Moines reports the state high school basketball tournament will not be held this winter under the State High School Athletic Association. Board members say district and state meets are abandoned due to size, cost, and logistics with schools and colleges seeking alternative district events and host sites across Iowa. The University of Wisconsin plans to invite the state champions to a separate competition, with several colleges and teachers’ colleges hosting regional meets.
