Regular Season Roster versus Playoff Roster

There are 20 players each on the Varsity and JV Roster for the regular season. Once the playoffs start, districts and state only allow 20 players to be listed on the playoff roster. Prior to the start of the playoffs, the coaches will select the 20 players from Varsity or JV that they feel are needed for the playoff run. If you have a question about this, then please talk to Coach J. Klosterman after the parent meeting today. This will only be covered today.
