State finals are in the books for high school boys' and girls' basketball around the state, and that means the end of a contract with host sites in Champaign and Bloomington-Normal.
However, Illinois High School Association leaders plan on exploring new contracts with the University of Illinois State Farm Center and Illinois State University's CEFCU Arena.
According to I-H-S-A Executive Director Craig Anderson, the Board is amidst contract negotiations with the host sites.
The previous three-year contracts were short-term deals to fit format changes.
But now, Anderson says the Board wants to explore five-year contract extensions with both Universities.
In other news, the I-H-S-A plans to explore possible implementation of a shot-clock at an upcoming board meeting.
