We switch to the winter season to look at basketball. The biggest change is in Class AAA girls. District 10 has several powerhouses back this season, including Villa Maria jumping up to AAA, but the PIAA has taken one spot away. District 10 will have only two qualifiers. Here is a look at the PIAA playoff dates and matchups.

March 7-8: PIAA first round
