AURORA — The Colorado High School Activities Association has released the brackets for the class 6A and 5A state basketball tournaments.
Tickets for rounds in the Great 8 and beyond can be purchased through axs.com.
League champions automatically qualified for each bracket. From there, the remainder of each bracket is filled out using the final data from the CHSAA Seeding & Selection Index. That data also seeds the fields.
All brackets have a 40-team field, with the top 24 seeds receiving a bye to the second round.
More information about the Seeding & Selection Index can be found in the official FAQ page.
Qualifiers for each bracket, and their seeds, are below.
Games begin this week.
