WSN staff to provide Live Blog from each Super Tuesday location

With the new 5-division model implemented by the WIAA prior to this year, a new wrinkle has been added to the Division 1 state quarterfinal games. In the past, those games had been played as part of the state tournament in Madison, as eight D1 teams advanced to the Kohl Center. This year, all five divisions will have just four representatives at state.

Enter "Super Tuesday" - which is what the WIAA has dubbed the Division 1 state quarterfinal contests that receive their own spotlight at large college gymnasiums. While the match-ups for these four games will not be decided until after Saturday's games, we do know that the atmosphere and quality of basketball for Super Tuesday should be nothing short of outstanding.

With that in mind as the state's best and largest statewide basketball source, WisSports.net will have staff at each of the Super Tuesday locations to bring you the most up to date info, score updates, and analysis. All four staff members will be participating in a single Live Blog, so you the fans can follow all four games at once, and of course join in the conversation as well!

The link to the Live Blog will be up on the boys basketball homepage all day Tuesday so that you can bookmark it for later. You can then join us to discuss the game, ask questions, and talk about an exciting night of basketball in the state of Wisconsin.

The games can also be seen live online at www.FoxSportsWisconsin.com. It will be a special night for hoops fans, as you can watch one game online and follow along and discuss the other games on WisSports.net.
