No more Bally Sports for WIAA state championships!. The statewide network announced it has added Football, Boys/Girls Soccer, Boys/Girls Volleyball, Boys/Girls Wrestling, Baseball & Softball to its list of championship coverage.

The WIAA has continued to stay quiet, and hide its mistakes, in getting this year's #wisfb playoff field. They owe it to Madison West and Greenfield to break their silence and give them the answers they deserve #wiaafb.

@notthefakeSVP Just 5 of the 10 @sdwisdells seniors from last night's WIAA sectional semifinal game. The boys qualified for a third straight sectional final, but won't get to avenge finishing a game short of state each of the last two seasons #WeAreWD #SeniorNight

There's no feeling about it. My reporting showed the WIAA broke from past precedent to wrongly omit Madison West, as well as Greenfield, from the postseason. The numbers here prove it #wiaafb #wisfb.
A group of parents in the Madison West football program have today retained legal counsel to press the WIAA and Madison School District for answers & information about their exclusion from the football playoffs, which many feel was incorrect based on tiebreaker criteria. #wisfb.

I dug into the numbers surrounding this year's #wisfb playoff controversy. Like many speculated, it shows that two teams were incorrectly kept out of the playoffs as the WIAA used incorrect information in its tiebreaking procedures #wiaafb.

@BadgerWBB with its second addition through the transfer portal this week. #Badgers address a big need with former Duquesne 3-point sharpshooter @tessmyers24. A career 38% 3-point shooter, Myers broke 1K career points this year and set a Dukes record with 11 made 3s in a game.

@BarkleyforPrez They broke from how their tiebreaking procedures, which wrongfully left out 2 teams that deserved to play tonight. The field usually needs sub-.500 teams in the field, who aren't immune to deep runs. West/Greenfield can't find out if they're next because of the WIAA's error.

Everyone ragging on Davison is lying to themselves that they wouldn't want a guy who plays with that much effort on their team. They're also being a total hypocrite in thinking their team hasn't had a guy who is a notorious overseller to get calls as well. Find a new slant.

Am honestly gutted for the Chiefs and their 10 seniors. I've seen tons of great basketball by those boys the last three years and after back-to-back sectional final losses, to not get a chance to earn the program's first state trip since 2007 is heartbreaking.

Got to cover @RAHSburg a couple times throughout this season. Coach Pottinger was always open, easy to talk to and could tell how much he cared about his players #wiaafb #wisfb @ReedsburgSD.
Brian Pottinger has resigned as the head football coach at Reedsburg after 14 years. He resurrected the Beavers' program, posting a record of 86-64, including a 2009 Division 3 state championship, 2008 runner-up finish, & two other state semi-final trips. #wisfb
