The Indianapolis Star has published a comprehensive statewide scoreboard that catalogs first-round and quarterfinal results across all classes and updates pairings going into sectional semifinals and championship games. Updated March 6, 2026, the page presents schedules, scores and pairings for the 2025-26 Indiana high school boys basketball sectional tournaments.

The scoreboard is organized by class under the headline Indiana high school boys basketball statewide scoreboard: Sectional semifinals and includes the explicit line, "Below are schedules, scores and pairings for the 2025-26 Indiana high school boys basketball sectional tournaments." The extract provided to this report shows the Class 4A header labeled "Class 4A Indiana high school boys basketball sectional schedule, scores" and lists sectionals and host sites across northern, central and southern Indiana.

Class 4A hosts shown in the extract include Sectional 1 at Crown Point, Sectional 2 at Chesterton, Sectional 3 at Mishawaka, Sectional 4 at Elkhart, Sectional 5 at Fort Wayne Northrop and Sectional 6 at Huntington North.

IndyStar plans live postgame coverage tied to the sectional nights, and the extract includes the promotion labeled "## TUESDAY POSTGAME SHOW" and the line, "Talkin' Hoops Live with Kyle Neddenriep and guests will begin around 10:30 p.m. ET Tuesday to break down the first night of sectional games." The page also encourages readers to get high school coverage via the High School Sports newsletter and to subscribe to the IndyStarTV: Preps YouTube channel.

The supplied excerpt documents the scope and hosts but does not include game-by-game scores, advancing teams, semifinal pairings or individual statistics. The line "The scoreboard is presented by" appears in the extract with no presenting partner named.
