The field for the FHSAA basketball state tournament is set!

FHSAA brackets were unveiled on Sunday in a YouTube broadcast.

15 girls teams from Palm Beach County qualified for the 2023 state tournament and will now vie to make a run to the state championships in Lakeland.

Four district champions and four at-large bids, determined via the FHSAA's power rankings algorithm, qualified in each region.

District champions are guaranteed to host in the opening round unless they draw a higher-seeded district champion. First round games are tentatively scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday.
