On Sunday afternoon, the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association released the basketball pairings for the state tournaments in Classes 6A, 5A and 3A.
The 4A and 2A tournament schedules will be released at noon Tuesday. Those were being delayed because of weather postponements that pushed back an area tournament in 4A and 2A to Monday.
The tournaments start Thursday, with 6A-5A in the Tulsa area with the main site at Mabee Center, and 4A-2A in the Oklahoma City area, with the main site at State Fair Arena.
