The N.C. High School Athletic Association released sites and times for its basketball regional championships.

In past years, the Western regional semifinals and finals or just the regional finals were held at neutral sites, often on college campuses in places like Hickory and Winston-Salem or the Greensboro Coliseum Annex.

This year’s regional finals will tip Saturday with the state championships to follow one week later at N.C. State and UNC Chapel Hill.
