The Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association continues its winter sports postseason tournaments this week. Swimming has preliminaries in advance of the championship meets on Feb. 22, which happens to be the same day for the indoor track finale. For the first time, track will hold its event at the new facility at the University of Pennsylvania.
Basketball wraps up the regular season on Feb. 20, and the state tournament brackets will be determined the next day by the DIAA. Some seeding adjustments could be on the line with the limited number of contests on the docket this week.
