CIF Southern Section Boys'
Division IV-AA & IVA Pairings--(Feb. 14, 1999)

We spent the entire morning down at Gahr High School as the CIF Southern Section playoff pairings and brackets were announced this morning. While the crowd was still busy as the smaller brackets were announced, it had thinned out considerably when the pairings for Division III and IV were announced.

Here are the pairings for each of the IV-AA and IV-A Division playoffs, each a 16 team bracket. All of the first games will take place on Friday, February 19, 1999. The Second Round will take place on February 23; the Semifinals will take place on March 2, 1999, while the finals is at the Pond at Anaheim.

We don't have time to actually put up the bracketing right now, but we'll do it later.
