MHSAA Announces Sites, Schedule Details for Winter Indoor Sports Finals

The Michigan High School Athletic Association has confirmed sites for its indoor Winter sports championship rounds, including an adjustment for the Individual Wrestling Finals that will allow more fans to attend that event after an increase in spectators limits was put into effect March 5 by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS).
The Individual Wrestling Finals previously were announced to be competed in full at Wings Event Center in Kalamazoo. However, a change moving two divisions to Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids will allow for more fans, primarily immediate family, to attend. Previously, wrestlers were to be limited to one spectator per participant; with multiple sites, wrestlers will be allowed multiple spectators each.
Similarly, Van Andel and the Breslin Center in East Lansing will host additional events to allow more fans to attend championship rounds in competitive cheer and girls and boys basketball. Both facilities have capacities of more than 10,000 spectators and may host up to 750 per MDHHS guidelines.
The Competitive Cheer Finals will move to Breslin Center to allow more fans to attend compared to other venues that were being considered. Semifinals in girls and boys basketball will be split by divisions between Breslin Center and Van Andel Arena, in part to provide for greater attendance and also to keep those rounds scheduled to just two locations instead of spreading games across a number of others.
The following are sites and schedules for Finals weekends for the remaining MHSAA Tournaments this winter, with further updates to be posted to the MHSAA Website:

Performance of the Week: Allen Park's Sophie Ramey
February 20, 2026
Sophie Ramey ♦ Allen Park
Senior ♦ Competitive Cheer
Ramey, a two-time Division 2 all-state first-team selection, was among top contributors as Allen Park clinched a repeat title in the Downriver League with a season-high three-round score of 796.10 points at the conference championship meet. The Jaguars won by just less than a point ahead of rival Gibraltar Carlson, clinching the league title with a season-best 323.6 in Round 3.
Allen Park remains ranked No. 1 statewide in Division 2 this week, while Carlson is No. 2 statewide, and those two programs have combined to win the last 18 Division 2 Finals championships with Allen Park finishing first the last two seasons. Ramey was a major part of both of those teams as well and is considering continuing to cheer after leaving Allen Park to attend Grand Valley State University, where she plans to study secondary education while majoring in mathematics and minoring in psychology.
