Bangor Tourney 2023 Schedule [UPDATED]
Fans of high school basketball will have to pay a little attention to the schedule for February 2023, as the Maine Principals' Association has made major changes to the popular event.
Friday is now a four-game session. Saturday and Monday will be two four-game sessions, with eight games played each day. Tuesday is a four-game schedule with games in the afternoon/evening. Wednesday is now a day full of semifinals with six games and three sessions. Thursday is devoted to the semifinals with six games and three sessions. Friday will just have two games at night, with the Class B Regional Finals and Saturday will be two sessions with Class D playing their regional finals in the afternoon and Class C playing their Regional Finals at night.
This now avoids Class C playing back-to-back Friday in the semifinals and finals on Saturday, and allows for postponements in the event of snow.
