Week two of postseason basketball is upon us and the field of teams has been cut down by almost 2/3rds! 

There are only 16 area teams still alive after last week's brutal district rounds.  Even more teams will be eliminated this week as many of our area teams have to go through each other to get to state.

Here's a look at who's left in each of the four classifications, where and when they'll be playing and what games we'll be covering on our network of stations:
