The 1A school classifications in Kansas high school basketball will change next school year.

Right now, all 1A schools are in one group. All teams participate in a regional tournament, and the top two go on to sub-state.

Centre principal Donald Raymer said there are 117 schools in 1A, with enrollment ranging from 108 to 14.

Starting next fall, 1A will be divided into two groups: Division I and Division II. Regional tournaments will be eliminated, and all teams will compete in sub-state tournaments. The champions will go on to the state tournament.
