OSSAA state basketball tournaments: Oklahoma schedules, venues, and latest reported results across all classifications

State tournament window and where games are played

Oklahoma’s high school basketball state tournaments are spread across three date blocks in March 2026, with championship series games staged in the Oklahoma City metro area and Norman.

  • Classes A, B-I and B-II: March 3–7, 2026.

  • Classes 4A, 3A and 2A: March 10–14, 2026.

  • Classes 6A and 5A: March 11–14, 2026.

The primary state-tournament site listed for bracket play is OG&E Coliseum at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds in Oklahoma City. Additional sessions for specific rounds are scheduled at Yukon High School, Carl Albert High School and the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, depending on classification and day.

How to read the schedule: sessions and tip times

For the March 3–7 tournaments (Classes A, B-I and B-II), the published grid organizes games into two daily sessions with morning and afternoon start times followed by evening windows. The format is designed to rotate boys’ and girls’ brackets and accommodate multiple classifications in a single venue.

For the March 10–14 tournaments (Classes 2A–4A) and the March 11–14 tournaments (Classes 5A–6A), the schedule grid indicates OG&E Coliseum as the principal site with weekday morning starts and evening sessions, while Yukon High School and Carl Albert High School host select day blocks. A separate schedule page lists Lloyd Noble Center sessions for a portion of the large-school slate on designated days.

Latest reported small-school boys results and upcoming rounds (as of March 6)

With the Class A and Class B-I boys tournaments underway, early-round results and semifinal pairings have begun to take shape.

Class A Boys: Okarche advanced from the quarterfinals with an 89–49 win over Cheyenne/Reydon. Cyril also moved on after a 96–69 quarterfinal win over Waukomis. Caddo advanced with a 75–29 quarterfinal win over Thomas-Fay-Custer, and Allen defeated Southwest Covenant 63–55.

The Class A boys semifinals are scheduled for Friday, March 6 at Yukon High School, with Okarche vs. Allen and Cyril vs. Caddo. The Class A championship game is scheduled for Saturday, March 7 at OG&E Coliseum, with an 8:30 p.m. tip time listed.

Class B-I Boys: Varnum recorded a 61–58 quarterfinal win over Glencoe on March 5 at OG&E Coliseum.

The published bracket list shows Class B-I boys quarterfinal games on March 5 at OG&E Coliseum and semifinals on March 6, with the championship slated for March 7. Other quarterfinal pairings include Calumet vs. Fort Cobb-Broxton, Rattan vs. Stuart, and Hammon vs. Binger-Oney, with tip times spread across late afternoon and evening.

What to watch next

As the March 3–7 tournaments progress toward Saturday finals, the next major statewide shift arrives March 10–14, when 2A, 3A and 4A begin their state-tournament rounds, followed immediately by the March 11–14 window for 5A and 6A. With multiple sites in use on select days, teams and fans are expected to rely on classification-specific brackets and the published session grids to track venue assignments and game times.
