Only IESA issued passes will be allowed. This means that Midwest Central season passes will not work. Everyone has to pay the required admission, including students and senior citizens.
Admission prices for all regional games will be:
$3 for K-8 students and senior citizens (62+)
$5 for high school students and adults.
The games for tomorrow, 1/28, will be as follows: the first game at 9:00 AM will be Lewistown vs Creve Coeur Parkview; our Raiders will take on Illini Central at 10:30 AM; at 12:00 PM Havana will play Marquette Heights Georgetowne.
