The LHSAA released the following press release:
The Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) has officially released the 2024 football playoff brackets, marking the start of an exciting postseason for teams across the state. Fans, players, and coaches can now view the much-anticipated brackets on the LHSAA website at lhsaa.org/football. Brackets for all divisions are available under the “playoff brackets” section, accessible from the top of the page.
In an update to the Division II Select bracket, University Lab High School’s record has been revised to 8-2. This change follows a recent legal development in which a temporary restraining order (TRO) was filed on behalf of University Lab, requiring the LHSAA to suspend previously imposed penalties and temporarily reinstate the school’s wins. The LHSAA will continue to follow the legal proceedings and make any necessary adjustments as the case is resolved.
The LHSAA expressed gratitude to schools, fans, and the community for their patience amid this unique situation. They look forward to an exciting postseason and wish all participating teams the best as they compete for the championship title.
