The decision has been made by the State High School League to proceed with a two tier hockey tournament in 1992. That seems to be a step in the right direction.

To wrap up the present package it has been decided, at least for the present, to play the secondary tourney at the St. Paul Civic center during the same week as the biggee. In addition the format calls for a Class AA gathering of the biggest schools and a Class A grouping of the smaller schools with smaller schools having the chance to play upward if they so desire.
