Minnesota high school league approves football schedule changes starting in 2017

The Minnesota State High School League board of directors approved significant regular-season football schedule changes Monday for some large metro-area schools in their 2017 and 2018 seasons.

Just one year after the league’s district-based plan rendered conferences obsolete, the East and West Metro districts are set to be dissolved, creating new-look Metro and Suburban districts. Some of the 58 metro area programs in those districts welcome the chance for fresh scheduling partners and a more competitive slate of eight regular-season games.
