KSHSAA selects championship sites for fall and winter sports

The Kansas State High School Activity Association has announced the sites for its 2019-2020 championship games for fall and winter sports.

The sites for football remain unchanged while basketball changed the location of the 2A state tournament to Manhattan from Hays. The biggest change is the addition of girls wrestling.

The inaugural girls state championship will be held at Tony’s Pizza Event Center in Salina on Feb. 27 — the day before 4A boys state wrestling is scheduled to begin at the same location.

Girls tennis will also see changes.

6A will be moved to Kossover Tennis Center in Topeka, 5A to Pittsburg High School, 4A to T.H. Vaughn Tennis Complex in Winfield, and 3-2-1A to Harmon Park in Prairie Village.

Volleyball is making a slight change. 6A and 5A will remain in Salina, just as 4A and 3A will remain in Hutchinson, but 2A and 1A will now both be at United Wireless Arena in Dodge City.

In boys soccer, 6A is moving to Topeka, 5A to Spring Hill High School, and 4-1A will play at Stryker Complex in Wichita.
