A statewide playoffs system is one step clear to reality after the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association's Tournament Management Committee voted 10-4 in favor of the latest proposal crafted by the Massachusetts State Football Coaches Association.

The proposal now goes to the MIAA's board of directors on June 7th.  At that meeting, the board can do several things including pass it, defeat it or push it to a vote at the MIAA's annual meeting in March of 2013.

If approved, the two-year statewide trial will begin during the 2013 season.
